Yah we got a nice snow belt. The year started off with crazy amounts of snow but it has cooled off and now we have an average snow pack. Im sitting at 4,000 feet and there is still around 3 meters maybe 3.2 in spots but up high in unwind effected areas I have probed 4 meters.

Most snow I have seen in this area is 6 meters during the end of the season. But I have heard of 7-8
