Snow expectations for a late June Start

#1

I’m figuring on starting a thru the last week of June. How much on-trail snow should I expect to see? Any in the San Juans (assuming I’m there mid-July)?

FWIW I found this snow report for CO. It looks like overall the state is having an about average snow year.

You’ll be fine in the San Juans by mid-July! You’ll find the occasional patch of lingering snow, but that’s about it. We had a good snowfall this winter, but so far, the spring has been quite warm prompting a feverish melt-off down low. I got to imagine it’s more of the same up top. Happy Trails.
