Black Canyon of the Gunnison -- Memorial week

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.
