[Philmont] Phil weather

OK, I can't resist puffing out my proud parent chest. My Ranger son Brian
called Wednesday after finishing his Ranger training. He said that they woke up
Wednesday morning at Crater Later with it snowing. He said that there were 6
to 10 feet drifts of snow at Apache Springs. This is his third summer being
a Ranger at Philmont. I am not proud of him or anything!!!!!!
 
Can't wait to go back to Philmont.

My Ranger son also reported that Baldy has too much snow to ascend safely at
this time. Apparently there is still over 2 feet in the saddle and much
more on top. It will be a day to day decision as to whether they will allow
crews to ascend baldy.
 
Even with all that snow, all of Colfax County is in a fire ban. Only
limited fires for program areas are allowed.

Just got word from my ranger daughter that they had an inch of snow fall on
the mesa above Crater Lake on June 5. They returned to snow flurries and 60
mph wind gusts at base camp later that morning. Hope you folks arriving
there this weekend for the first treks are ready for some interesting weather.
