I was going to head to indian creek this afternoon but it's really wet here in durango. I am seeing some different/conflicting weather reports for the Indian creek area. Any weather info would be appreciated. Thanks- Darren

How is next week looking? Some friends and I are flying in from Florida on Monday. Ive checked various weather sites and they all say something different. We are looking to climb Monday afternoon through Friday, but dont want to risk damaging any routes.

You can check Creek weather conditions here:
climate.usurf.usu.edu/agwea…

This data comes from a public weather station on the ranch. The main things to check are precip, humidity, and soil moisture. Precip is the biggy, but keep in mind that the stations tends to under-report. Look for consecutive days of 0 precip for climbing.

Again, check the weather station

This station is in the creek, right at the center of the climbing areas.

Go to the "daily" table, and scroll right to see "precip"

It rained yesterday, but not today yet. If you get lucky and it doesn't rain the next few days, it will be ok.
