Welcome to June snowmobilers!
With warming temperatures & clear mountains skies, this puts everyone in the mood for a nice hike, ATV or horse back ride; but don't forget that a stray summer thunder storm can always come up quick & without warning!
OUTTHERECOLORADO https://www.outtherecolorado.com/ recently released the following information:
"Colorado gets zapped by 500,000 lightning strikes every year – just one more aspect of the state's wild weather. While most lightning strikes aren't noteworthy, Colorado has seen 584 lighting casualties (fatalities and injuries) during the 39-year period from 1980 to 2019, with 99 deaths and 485 injuries. Apr 16, 2021 "
Just like snowmobiling & checking for avalanche, road & trail conditions, always check the
weather forecast in the area you are heading for & always let someone know where you are going!
Stay safe & health in the summer to play harder in the winter!

Deer Peak Road (NFSR 401) Temporary Closure
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FROM THE FOREST SERVICE
SEE MAP BELOW
"Just a heads-up that the Deer Peak Road (NFSR 401) will be temporarily closed 6/14-6/25 while road maintenance is occurring.
The Comm Site will still be accessible through Little Froze. The attached map shows what will be open and closed. This schedule could vary slightly based on weather and other conditions.
When the time gets nearer we will post in the area to inform the public and likely also put something on social media.
Please share with any contacts/partners you feel need to have this information (i.e. CPW). I have informed the permit holders up at Deer Peak so that loop is closed.
Thanks!
