Hi,
It has been hit or miss from October to mid December. Usually by about mid December there will be good snow and coverage. I have been up the past two President's Day weekends and both times there was a lot of snow.
It seems that there have been good reports on this board. My rule has been if it snows enough to shut down the 5, then it will be nice coverage on Pinos.
HTH Good luck!
Yuzo
