Colorado14ers,
We went through Leadville last weekend on our way to do some prospecting at Cache Creek. Everything above 11,000 is pretty much snowed in. High Lakes are still ice covered (no fishing there yet!). The past week has been quite warm though and run-off has started causing some flooding along the major rivers here. If you are prepared for hiking/camping in the snow with temps in the 60' you're good to go. If not, plan on staying below 11,000ish.
Enjoy your trip out here.
