The Colorado Rockies had another fantastic weekend. The ridge of high pressure has made the outdoor recreation fun, even though the snow conditions deteriorate by the hour. The temperature at our high point was about 40 degrees, there was no wind at all and a cloudless sky. Sun burn was a definite possibility.
We spent Monday snowshoeing up to the base of Brown Mt. at an elevation of about 11,700 feet. The next time you aren't sure of where to set your stair master, try the Brown Mt. setting. I guarantee a good workout.
The lower slopes had crusty snow but up on top, it was still very dry crystals and a pleasure to break trail. We looped around here, ate lunch and then headed down to the car, 2000 feet below.
