Excerpt from Federal-State-Cooperative Snow Survey and Water Supply Forecasts for Washington: As of Apr. 1, 1967The statement made last month regarding the snow cover picture continues as was reported at that time. Record snowfalls have occurred in the up per Columbia and the Kootenay basins in British Columbia. The higher elevation snow courses indicate 251 to 301 above any previous measure ments and the middle and lower elevation snow courses normal to 201 above. The result of this high snowpack at the higher elevations will be a delayed runoff with good water conditions along the main stem late in the runoff season. The snow cover in washington is good in the north at the higher elevations and deteriorates the further south you go across the State and the lower you go, elevation-wise, in the watersheds theme selves. Low elevation watersheds, such as the Cedar, are reported to have only 722 of a normal snowpack. High elevation watersheds such as the Kettle, Okanogan and Skokomish have a snow cover that is 191 to 212 above normal.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
