Star Valley Ranch Snow Gauge Video-Winters 2011 vs 2012

Star Valley Ranch Snow Gauge Video-Winters 2011 vs 2012

Now that the snow is just about gone is a good time to compare the snow gauge videos made at Star Valley Ranch.

The winter 2010-2011 Winter video  of the snow gauge is here

This winters video was made with a somewhat less quality of a camera, since the StarDot used last year is the one currently in the Star Valley Public Works  building with a view across the valley.

This years video begins the middle of December and continues daily until April 4th.

Both years the maximum snow depth was very similar, however the obvious difference is when the snow finally melts.  While nearly gone as of April 4th this year,  it was over a month later, around the 10th of May that snow finally disappeared.
