Aliciaf and others did Shav/Tab yesterday and conditions were all but snow free. The Shavano image was taken along the route between Shavano and Tabeguache. Driving from the San Juans to Denver this past Sunday, the Sawatch was seen to be considerably drier than other ranges in CO.

Yes, I was down there yesterday and it was almost completely dry. A few patches of snow here and there but you barely even have to touch it. Got a great look at Antero, and as you can see from the photo - that looked pretty dry also.
