Heading to colorado this weekend

[VarmintSniper30]

So I'm heading to colorado to be above 10500 ft do you guys recommend using a stove right now or it's not really that cold?

I had 32 degrees this past weekend at 8500 ft. I was comfortable with my 15 degree sleeping bag. I didn't bring a stove.

I’d probably bring one because you don’t have much gear this time of year, however, it’s likely no colder than 35 degrees or so. I was up at 12,500 2 days ago and it was pretty warm.

The last two posts tell you everything you need to know about Colorado weather this time of year. Bring whatever you have for whatever possible conditions, because you just never know!

They are still skiing here, the storm that just came through was expected to dump 18" of snow, bring shorts and parkas because who knows!

Depending on where you're heading there may be fire restrictions in effect, we have them all around us right now. Worth looking ahead of time.

Yep. Be prepared for wind, rain, snow, hail, lightning.
