This is Pikes Peak about 3 weeks ago. After the recent storm, its finally back to having quite a bit more snow, along with the mountains near it. But most of the time this winter, there has been more rock visible then snow, a definite bad sign for the area that the drought will be worse this summer for Colorado.

There has been maybe 4 or 5 weekend where snow and road conditions would have prevented me from riding my motorcycle. And for me, that includes the weekends where there was still too much dirt on the road. Normally Colorado Springs roads have dirt on them for at least 3 months solid from the snow.

If the rest of the country is tired of snow, Colorado would like it back .
