Quoted: Since Denver's elevation is 5,280 or so and the highest CO mountain is 14,000 ft or so , you are in the foothills . View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: I am sitting at 8000 feet in my yard. In a big mountain valley. Custer county spans the eastern slope of the Sangre De Cristo range which is no slouch when it comes to vertical above the valley. I spend most of my time in and around Chaffee county. |

The snow looks nice. It's the gun control in your state that's the negative.

We only got a dusting, everything went above or below us. It's shaping up to be another drought year by the looks for central Wyoming. I never even had to get my tractor out to clear snow this winter.

Still have another month or so to go. |

Much worse than the snow is the blizzard of leftist turds moving in and voting in more lunacy.

Lots of people moved to CO during the drought years and have been finding out recently.

I was in Colorado last week for spring break. The air was so dry my nose bled every day and I had headaches from the thin air. It's not for me. Was there last May and it snowed! I'm good down here.

This winter has been very dry here. |

In 4 months, when everyone is bitching about heat indexes, OP will post "this is why I moved to the mountains".

View Quote Why did you move the mountains - because people suck |

The question is not why did you move to the mountains, but rather, why did you move to anywhere in Colorado?
The good news is, if you're ever wanting an eight ball of meth, you've probably got a Walter White within a mile radius. |

I don't know, OP, why DID you move to Colorado?
Here in NC we haven't had snow in several years. |

Quoted: It's been an off and on year, but we're over 100% of norm right now, I think. I'm on the western slope, too. Maybe a little higher up than you (8K~)?

Springtime in the Rockies--nice for a few days, winter will inevitably return. The biggest snows I've seen on the Front Range have been in October and April. Had a damaging snowstorm here in late May a few years ago.

Quoted: Hard pass. CO is going commie faster than any other state in the Union. View Quote We used to have some of the best gun laws, now we have some of the worst. Wasn't so long ago when Teller County, (Woodland Park, etc., west of the Springs) was named the most heavily armed county in the US. |

And it's snowing again. All day, really. Wet, heavy, and cold.
Ugh. |
