Fruit Tree pruning in Zone 7a

[mikeua]

I have 5 fruit trees that I am looking into pruning. They are about 5 years old semi dwarf apricot, pear, apple, plum, and saturn peach. From reading a couple of places, dormant winter pruning is best for most trees. For apircots, though it is suggested to not do in the winter. Does anyone have any experience pruning the 5 trees I have listed in a zone 7a dry climate like southern Idaho? What time of the year do you usually do it?
