DENVER — There's not a lot of wintry action happening anymore in the Denver metro following our latest snowstorm (which didn't even leave a trace of fresh powder), but the same can't be said for Colorado's high country.
Though warnings and advisories have all been lifted for Colorado, light snow will linger over the central and southern mountain areas through early Saturday.
Below, you can find the latest updates on road conditions in the mountains in case you're thinking of making the trip there this weekend.
