Sawatch winter 14ers
Has anyone done a sawatch 14er recently? Was planning on doing one or two this week but there aren’t many recent condition updates. Is the wind too strong to do one right now?

The wind varies day to day. Check the forecast, pick a day, and go for it!

Re: Sawatch winter 14ers
Thank you! That post was helpful as I have never hiked in anything terribly windy lol. Y’all know if current conditions might require snow shoes?
Re: Sawatch winter 14ers
Yes bring snowshoes.
