There is a little snow to contend with from Huerfano Peak to Unnamed 13555, but not much. Could have missed just about all of it though and mostly on the first 1/3. Stayed on the ridge most of the time first 1/3 to 1/2 occasionally dropping to either side. The last half, however, I found it necessary to drop to the left/west side most of the time when the ridge wouldn't allow a class 3 option. Plenty of class 4+ opportunities along the ridge which I graciously declined. Lots of loose rock when dropping off the ridge last half. Photos (click for slideshow):
