Sawatch Conditions

Post by pmreyn2010 »

Hi all,

Does anyone know what the current snow situation is on the 14ers in the Sawatch Range? With the nice outlook for the weekend was hoping to bag one of them. Any advice/information would be greatly appreciated. Also, if anyone on here is thinking about climbing tomorrow and is looking for someone else to climb with, shoot me a message! Thanks!

This cam points in the direction of Mount Antero and from the looks of things the peaks in that area appear fairly snow free at least on the southern and eastern aspects. Below the live cam there are images from days prior.

There are some other decent cams of the Sawatch in this listing, but I haven't kept up with them a whole lot this past week.
