take a look at these, Willi, Warren sent me the link

the snow pack percentages look real bleak, but the overall precipitation
figures aren't nearly as scary Several people I've talked to have told
me that the current rains and wintry mix seem to be soaking in, not running
off. In that case the water might actually be better for the rivers than an
equivalent amount of water in quickly melted snow, replenishing the rivers
and keeping them cool over a much longer part of the summer



Thanks for the links. Very similar to the situation in my part of
Colorado. My guess is that if we don't get an extreme hot spell like
last Summer, the rivers in the area of the Clave should be in what I
consider excellent fishing condition, relatively low but still nice and
cool, when we're there. That's my hope anyway.

I think Warren picked a good time, August is going to be rough again
this year I think.
