Tussenseizoen — een gewone maand

• Risico

  Fire restrictions and smoke

  1 mei – 10 jul · meestalRookseizoenSluitingen

  Southwest monsoon

  Storms build over the Peaks most afternoons from early July, drop hard for an hour and clear, and the burn scars above town flood downhill when they do. It is the greenest and the most dramatic the high desert gets. Bron ↗
