Hey Easton. I'm up here in Denver and have been to Estes park ( near Long's peak, a 14er) last weekend and backpacking in Lost creek (North of Pikes peak, another 14er) the week before that. The general rule of thumb for 14ers is not until at least early June. With the very southern 14ers you might be able to squeek by mid May but there is snow here starting at 12,000 feet right now. I would recommend staying below that (we backpacked up to 10,000 and it was fine). Unless you are quite skilled with snow alpinism I'd hold off for now.
