Current Snow Levels

[Benjblt]

I'm trying to figure out where the snow is at in an "obscure" location of Oregon. I can look up the snow water equivalent but I can only use that to guess. It would be great to get a current satellite picture of the area and get snow depth in specific locations. Any suggestions?

Tripcheck.com can be useful if they have stations and cameras near the area your looking at.

Yep. I looked at that. It's crazy how shade and being on a different side of the mountain, as well as some elevation change, can change snow level drastically.

I use this a lot on Google Earth, have found it super handy. Occasionally, areas on the edges of being melted out in my experience might have a little bit more snow than what's shown on this KMZ file.

Snotel sites all over the west are very accurate and up to date.
