Snow & Ice Surveys
Snow surveys at designated stations are made at regular intervals during the winter months to determine the depth of the snow pack and its water equivalent. The data obtained are of value in estimating the spring run-off potential, agricultural productivity and fertilizer requirements, waterfowl populations, etc. Furthermore, they have application concerning livestock and wildlife survival, and in such problems as snow loads on roofs, etc.
SNC's snow survey course consists of 6 fixed sampling locations at which the survey is made twice per month, on the 1st and 15th.
