I only see the North and East aspects.
Wednesdays snow has not melted out,
and it has been snowing up there most of today.
The whole range got quite a dusting.

Good Luck!

Just drove up from the valley this afternoon. The Blanca group had snow, but the West side of Crestone Needle and Peak looked good -- but I was observing from a distance. Good luck.
