Oregon Snow Depth (24 in x 20 in)
1:1,250,000 (1 inch = 20 miles)
20 inch by 24 inch flat wall map, printed on heavy fine paper. Shipped rolled.
Oregon Snow Depth. A representation of the average snow depth in mid-March for the 19 years from 2004 - 2023, often the deepest moment of the year for the snowpack. This map features prominent passes for touring and all currently operating alpine ski resorts in the state of Oregon. Detailed reference labels includes cities/towns/places, state parks, alpine ski areas, highways/major roads, prominent summits of interest, landforms of significance, National Park units, Indian Reservations, National Wildlife Refuges, and Oregon Marine Reserves and Protected areas.
MORE ABOUT THIS MAP AND THE DATA
This map presents the average value of snow depth modeled for March 15th from the 19 year period of 2004 thru 2023. The mean was calculated by Mitchell Geography from data produced by the NOAA National Weather Service's National Operational Hydrologic Remote Sensing Center (NOHRSC) SNOw Data Assimilation System (SNODAS). SNODAS is a modelling and data assimilation system developed by the NOHRSC to provide the best possible estimates of snow cover and associated variables to support hydrologic modelling and analysis. NOHRSC products are gridded data sets for the continental United States at 1-km spatial resolution and 24-hour temporal resolution. SNODAS models are run each day, with analysts deciding whether or not to use remote sensing and ground based observations (e.g. SNOTEL) to update the snow water equivalent state in the model.

^Updated September 2023, incorporating the 2023 season depth data. Easter egg email also removed. :)
