I contacted the admin a few times but never received a response. Not sure if the photo's files are too large or something else. The best I can do is have you send me a private message with your e-mail address and I can send up to date pictures of the snow pack on most of the Sangre peaks
First, thanks for the 411 in the Music Pass thread I started.
Second, and I hate to say this, maybe you can post your question about uploads on the facebook page.
I don't participate in that, but it seems most of the forum has migrated over there. ](*,) This includes people who might be able to help you help this site.
Just to clarify, pfiore1's question was from April, and he didn't really post a question, it was part of his response to another question. I resurrected this thread from April to ask a few questions about the Blanca group...

What is going on with the mosquitoes at the Willow Creek TH? I've never seen anything like this and I'm originally from a state famous for mosquitoes. Is this a sangres thing? Or is it somehow contained to kit carson and challenger?

Was up at Lake Como/LB last weekend, and I'm fairly certain I came back with Zika, West Nile, and Malaria. (Just kidding, I know those viruses aren't things to joke about). But really, wtf. I, too, am from a notoriously buggy state, and this is my 6th summer in CO, but I haven't seen anything like this here before. I was really surprised by the amount of mosquitoes and flies, esp this early in the summer.

Was wondering specifically about Lake Como, thanks. Beautiful mountains, what a shame they're infested. So strange that the Sangres get mosquitoes like that when the other ranges don't.
