SNOW

How much snow are the mountains getting? I am in Cruces, and we got about 3 or so inches. I do not remember, growing up, getting snow this much in a year. I am just curious as to how much the mountains are getting?

Check out the Cloudcroft weather cam or the Dry Canyon cam. Looks like a good 12".

I was out trying to scout deer in the Organs this morning, it was getting after it. About 8am turned out to be a great morning for scouting. They got 3-4 solid inches.

pushing 20". Good stuff. We really need it.

We got more snow before this storm than all of last snow season.

Good stuff for sure

**---sorry, just realized you're talking about the southern mtns latest

I am just asking in general. We have had such a bad drought, all over the state. I am just glad we are getting some decent moisture. Hopefully I can draw a good tag next year, as if this keeps up, we will have some great antler growth! And good fawn and calf survival rates.

Check ski resorts,47" @ Sandia and Taos. I have about 6-8" with 2' drifts north of Quemado,but most of it has blown to Escondido and Mangas Mtns. Good start to the season!
