Black Canyon of the Gunnison -- Memorial week

That's a fairly hot area in summer. The weather should be nice the end of May.

Any thoughts on the how the weather and snow cover would be like around Memorial Weekend?

Though the Gunnison area is one of the colder places in Colorado, it does warm up nicely as spring progresses to summer. Memorial Day is the traditional start of the tourist season here in Colorado, and the snow cover should be a non-factor; it's typically only at the higher elevations in late May. That said, consider getting reservations ASAP, as that will be a very busy weekend.

We've camped at BCNP over Memorial Day weekend and it was marvelous. Snow shouldn't normally be an issue then and it's been much drier than normal in that part of CO this year.

Will be there from May-Oct. again this year.Last year was very nice never used my AC just opened the windows and used fans.Also loved the fishing on BLue Mesa Res.

Snow should not be a problem Memorial Weekend nights will be chilly and warmer during the day.
