I've read that the D&RGW did not keep Cumbres Pass open in wintertime from winter 1964-65 onward. 11/30/65 must have been one of the last runs of the season, does the record show how late operations continued that year? And for comparison, does anyone know the condition of Cumbres at present? What's the snow accumulation this year?
