Federal sampler data for Saddle and C1, 2016 - ongoing.

We use an aluminum Standard Federal Snow Sampler to measure snow depth
and snow water equivalent (SWE). This device, compared to traditional
snow pit techniques, provides efficient measurement capabilities that
are less disruptive to the snowpack. Manual Federal Sampler
measurements provide high accuracy point data to determine the amount
of water in the surrounding snowpack. With a high downstream reliance
on water within the regional snowpack, our weekly measurements give a
time series of SWE throughout the winter season, offering consistent
and dependable information for water resource planning and
preparation.
