Hiking around Frisco this weekend?

[RachelV]

I have a friend who's thinking about heading out to Frisco this weekend and doing some hiking in the surrounding mountains. What's the snow situation like up there now? I imagine there's some, but how much are we talking about? Any advice on what the conditions are like in general this time of year would be much appreciated! Thanks! :D

What kind of hiking do they want to do? We we there Mon & Tues. We hiked on Monday but stayed low. Did the Tenderfoot trail. There was some snow in the shade but hikeable. We also did a short hike up to the old Dillion Dam.

Our friends went to Henley Lake. Didn't get a report but assume it was ok.

They did get more snow this week. Not sure how much. We're going up this afternoon and will give you a report later today.

No snow around Dillion/Silverthorne. My condo is 9,600 ft and there is some snow on the north side of the building.

So as long as your friends stay low they should be ok.
