The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Kremmling Field Office snow surveyors Mark Volt and Maureen Gutsch conducted snow survey measurements during the last days of February. 

Snowpack in the high elevation mountains above Middle Park now ranges from 59% to 88% of the 30-year average, with the overall average for Middle Park at 65%. Snow density is averaging 25%, which means that for one foot of snow there is only 3 inches of water. These measurements and averages are from high elevation snow courses and SNOTEL sites. Low and mid snowpack is currently nonexistent.
