is there a specific CO bc thread anywhere? if not, how's the snowpack over 11k' looking? was thinking about heading out in May to take my wife up an easier 14er (Quandary E ridge or something, maybe Elbert), what are the odds that'll be more-or-less continuously in over say the 1st week of May? or could you point me to the appropriate thread if not this one

This is the Colorado everything thread. You're in the right place. But I got nothing for you.

Use 14ers.com to figure out snow conditions on those easier 14ers. People post a lot of good beta there.

Depends on if it snows a bunch in April, or if it gets warm and sunny. We lost a lot of snow in March and honestly coverage in the alpine wasn't spectacular to begin with this year thanks to wind. It's really the wetter storms with less wind in March/April that make or break our spring season in the alpine.
That said, the base of our snowpack is as strong as I've seen it in 10 years of BC skiing here. So we got that going for us.
Feel free to PM me for beta as your trip gets closer.

Skied silver today at noon...hottest hike of the year for me. Almost took my pants off.
Snow was super wind-affected and grabby but it sort of help that it had been skied by 10 (?) people before us. Props to that crew for not sleeping in until 730am! What happens on a Saturday now...are there 50 people on Buffalo?

You'll do fine. Snow pack is still really good. My general take is that the big wind events moved most of that snow into the usual loaded lines and off of the ephemeral lines. So if you're skiing something that's usually good, it will prob be good to great. If you're skiing something that's usually rocky (e.g. Bierstadt) it might be awful. We're in a decent wet pattern right now, so that could all change and you'd have your pick of every low angle teener you can imagine by may. I don't see it getting truly bad by may in any scenario.

Drove to DIA and back today. Heavy graupel in Summit and snow to almost Golden down and back. Hammered on Vail Pass until I got below 9k where it was raining in Vail.
