[pct-l] Snow in Southern Oregon

[ned at mountaineducation.org]

Mountain Education just finished teaching an Intermediate Snow Skills Course 
on South Sister in central Oregon. The elevations were between, roughly, 
6,000 feet and 7,000 feet. We had only a few feet of snow at the eastside 
trailhead, about 5 feet of snow at 6,600, and more at 7,000 (unable to 
measure).

During our course, it snowed violently for three days, dropping up to 5 feet 
of fresh, dry powder. We don't know the percentages of "normal" they now 
have, but more is to come...
