When we were making the 3 day RockyMountain RR Club trips we were told that the average snow fall at Cumbres was 600 inches. To me that sounds like a whole bunch of snow. I do know that somewhere in my "files" I have a picture of a tin can turned over the top of a pipe. The pipe is the exhaust of a bulldozer that is setting on a flat car that is on a siding near the Cumbres station. Further, the braces on the eaves of the station were made necessary by the crushing weight of the deep snow.
