1/4/2026  CO-EP-449 COEl Paso Mildly Dry General Awareness
Plants & Wildlife
 Becoming repetitive. Warm, dry, and gusty. Continues to feel like we skipped over winter to another season. I watered our lawn this week, some green grass is still showing.  View

 No skiing so far, and none likely any time soon. If this keeps up, family members coming the middle of the month will likely bail.  View

 Still very dry conditions here. The wind has not helped. My heretofore (pitifully) scarce snowpack has now disappeared and the wind keeps blowing. I have observed only Traces of precipitation thus far in the New Year. Last calendar year ended with 67% of PRISM Normal precipitation. Water Year to Date is 49% of PRISM Normal. There was very little snow when I hiked in the National Park on Friday morning, although we were pelted with wind-driven snow and ice coming from the west. Maybe 1" to 1.5" of new snow on the unbroken trail. Sledding hill at Hidden Basin has been closed for a couple of weeks due to lack of snow. Around the cabin the "meadow" is looking very dry. With all of the seasonal plants in dormancy it looks very brown. We are attracting a lot of birds to the bird bath in the garden. Mostly crows, Steller's jays, ravens, magpies, and lots of LBBs (nuthatches and juncos mostly). The elk herds up here have thinned out. Saw one group of about 70 animals just down the road two days ago browsing on dried grasses and shrubs. Saw two huge herds down the mountain near Loveland where they tend to gather for the winter. Black-tail (mule) deer are still hanging around the area. Snotel sites are reporting 61% of Median SWE in my 6-Digit HUC and 76% in my 8-Digit HUC. The only active stream flow gauge in my area is reporting average runoff today compared to 30 year record. No new fire restrictions in place other than the permanent ones. No active prescribed burns in the area. Everyone up here is concerned about the lack of precipitation.  View
