I "like" the Colorado Trail Association page, so that's the official word. It's good for the latest info and alerts.

So, with a slightly above average snow fall, it sounds like your likely to run into significant snow in places and having traction for the scary sections makes sense. Make sure you have suitable gaiters for post holing up to your knees, that's mostly what you'll be doing. The worst is when every other step punches through and you go down to the knee.

Was thinking of going out there in August but given current events, I'll stick close to home this season.
