Hello all,

I may have an option for a ride to Durango arriving June 16. My ride returns to the PNW on July 1.

Does anyone know what the San Juan Mtns snowpack is this year relative to a 100% of normal winter?
Anyone willing to guess what high country trails would be like in terms of snow coverage between June 15 and 30?
A thought I have is to take the D & S RR to flag stops. Drop off at Colorado Trail Flag Stop in Elk Creek. Hike 40 miles to Needle Creek Flag Stop for train pickup.

Hunchback and Columbine Passes are over 12,400 Ft. Also curious to know if Vallencito Creek ford of Johnson Creek Trail is a problem that early.

Any thoughts and suggestions are welcome.

Thanks, community!

John
