What October feels like

The first real snow of the season usually shows up and is off the streets within a day. This is the best time of year in Garden of the Gods — cold enough to thin the crowd, bright enough that the rock glows at the end of the day.

Winter is doing its thing: 2.5 in of snow in a typical October, with fresh snow on about 2 days. about 10 nights dip below freezing.
