What to pack

What May feels like

Pole Pedal Paddle runs in mid-May and the whole town turns out for it — ski, bike, run, paddle, in that order, from the mountain down to the river. Nights still drop near freezing, which is a permanent feature of this elevation rather than a spring holdover.

Real rain shows up about 3 days all month; the rest stay dry. about 9 nights dip below freezing.
