Although it's not enough to end the drought etc. I noticed in the Sangre de
Christo Chronicle (the voice of the Morreno Valley) that Philmont received 6.5
inches of snow (I am assuming at base camp) and Angel Fire Ski Resort received 16
inches. All of the area ski resorts were reporting skiing on natural rather than
man-made snow. Lets hope it continues.
Maybe you guys on the East Coast could send them some of your excess snow.
Happy Trails,
Roy Fisher
