It can vary depending on where in the state you are. The average humidity in Denver is 37% year-round, but in Boulder it apparently averages 0%.

That has to be an error. Even in deep winter ice rapidly sublimates when the vapor pressure of water is low

I think you must be right - currently, they are experiencing 13% humidity. Compared to Denver, that is still kind of suprising. https://www.wunderground.com/weather/us/co/boulder/80301
