In that part of the state north of Durango not bad yet. South San Juans south of Wolf Creek not too bad yet. North of Wolf Creek and Pagosa Springs in the Weminuche up towards Gunnison it's been decimated. Millions of acres of trees are dead. It's very sad as places I've backpacked and hiked for 40 years you can't even get to for all the down trees. The bettles so far have left the young and smaller trees alone but the mature trees are gone.
