Lots of Snow in the Moubtains

We are at 9600 feet in Breckenridge. We drove up yesterday in snow. The Rockies in Central Colorado were expecting 8-14 inches of snow by midday Monday. So, we got just what we were expecting for our ski holiday...SNOW. On the drive up we spotted 6 bighorn sheep right along I-70. That is funny since there is a bighorn sheep viewing area just east of Georgetown which is only a few miles up the road. In 15 years we have never spotted a bighorn at that spot. Wildlife is abundant in this part of Colorado, even in the dead of winter. We usually see red fox. We see mountain goats when we drive up to the summit of Mt. Evans and occasionally bighorn sheep along the road.  Since we have our timeshare in the mountains it makes it easy for our daughter and granddaughter to come up and enjoy the snow too. It is quite a contrast from Denver which has been brown and dry...yet only an hour away.
