The winters can be quite cold, but if one wears proper clothing for season it can be fun playing in the snow.<BR/><BR/>The valleys in the Rockies can be very warm, although dry, with the higher elevations becoming cooler.

You might not like the cold or the snow or the frostbite or constant shivering. Besides, you need not move. Take a week's vacation at one of the places I posted about. Fish to your heart's content.<BR/><BR/>Alyssa, planning is half the fun.
