2026 Snowpack thread

[AK Troutbum]

Our accumulated total this year in Southeast Alaska was almost 18' at sea level. A record. There are still no buds on the trees.

We have a normal snow pack here in south central (I think a little under 8’ fell), but we still have at least a foot in the yard, and we’re probably about a month out from seeing any kind of green on the trees.

Draining Antero and possibly Williams Fork here in CO.

And draining as much as 1/3 of Flaming Gorge. Up to 1 million Acre/feet.

May 1 and this is what our snow pack in the front yard looks like. Hopefully, if it doesn’t snow again, we’ll be able to see the entire yard again for the first time in almost 7 months.

While we're (MT) are not in great shape— far better than most of the West

Not a pretty picture for the west. If we have a dry spring and summer as well, it could lead to significant fire problems.

Scattered rain and snow across New Mexico today and last night, they called for up to 14 inches at some higher elevations, been socked in all day so haven’t been able to see it.

Will take what we can get, it’s scary dry!

Interior Alaska still 50% covered.

As of today, the snow is finally gone! There’s still a little in the hills in the front yard, but for the most part, it’s goooone!

Outside of the snow that’s left in North Idaho, it feels like summer conditions in the woods. The fuels, brush, and duff is way too receptive to fire right now.

We found some decent snow high in the Bob Marshall this past weekend, but it's going fast—probably a month plus faster than normal . The floating season in the Bob is going to be short (as it was last year as well)

I just got off the Green river floating thru desolation and grey canyons in eastern utah. Holy petroli the river was low and not much snow anywhere on the drive home to north idaho. Seeing ski resort with no snow this time of year is concerning.

My buddy in Estes just got 2ft of snow.

Jeez. Alaska is the most beautiful state though isn't it? Your part of Alaska looks pretty nice. Easy to forget after a winter like this one.
