Summit County (Colorado) said hello to June on Saturday, but not quite yet to summer. The enormous snowpack left over from an historic winter has yet to melt off, leaving higher elevation trails in the area – especially 14ers – mostly inaccessible until later in the summer. Quandary Peak, the only 14er within Summit County proper and one of the most popular in the state, may not even be accessible until August.
