Glen Cove Conditions for Self Arrest Practice

Post by pmcgrath23 »

I've read that Glen Cove is a good place to practice self arrest. Does anybody know if there is enough snow there this time of year to practice, or do you usually have to wait until spring? If Glen Cove doesn't have enough snow, is there anywhere near Colorado Springs that would be a good place to practice this time of year?
