Yes, it was raining in Mesa Verde, but now at Great Sand Dunes it is sunny again, despite a lot of lightening and thunder last night.
Off tomorrow to Rocky Mountain Natl Park. I've heard it fills up quickly and have been trying to make reservations with no luck, so I'll try to camp nearby and get there early enough to get a spot.
Yes the rain is helping with the fires. The Marcos fire is now, I believe, fully contained. I have to go through Colorado Springs, and will hate seeing the devastation there. I remember seeing fire-scarred lands in Yellowstone a few years ago and thinking they had had a recent fire. It turned out that fire was ten or twelve years ago, and the land had still not recovered. Sad.
