Anyone driven up the road from Montezuma recently? Thinking about a trip up the 13ers there soon.

Went up yesterday, road is fine until about 11,400. Just park at one of the switchbacks and hike up. A good amount of snow still there, but nothing you can't hike around or cross. The local dog "Merle" caught up to us on Geneva and tagged along for the rest of the hike. Gave him a ride back to town to his house.
