Shooter Inbound to CO Springs

Welcome.

Yep, it's looking to be another COLD and (hopefully because we always need the moisture) snowy winter.

Be sure to practice your driving skills in the snow/ice in an abandoned LARGE parking lot. It pays off when you get on the road.

I've never lived in an icy/snowy environment but I've spent significant amounts of time in the Arctic Circle. I'm familiar with driving in it. With that said, I'm definitely not taken my minimal experience for granted. I plan on taking it nice and easy for awhile and doing just as you suggested with an empty parking lot.

It's gonna be fun!!!!

So is that an average winter snow or on the heavy/light side?

That would be a pretty good snow storm now days. Black forrest, Monument and the north end of town usually gets double the snow that Security and Fountain on the south end gets.

I live up on the north/east part of the Springs and the amount of snow shown in that pic is about what we got last year - total/cumulative for all of the times it snowed, not per snow. It was a VERY dry year last year.

So what part of town you live in?

I'm on the west side (Pleasant Valley, just north of Old Colorado City and south of the Rock Ledge Ranch).

We don't get nearly as much snow as they get in the north and east parts of town.

Welcome to Colorado.....This is on the far South end of Colorado (Trinidad) but our Winter storms are not "ALWAYS" like this.

I'll be down in the SE area, by the airport.

It was good to meet you today Bob. Based on your picture of Trinidad and the previous pic that was posted, this ought to be an interesting season for me.
