Space-based Snowfall Measurement

Tour of Storm Peak Laboratory (map)
(866)301-1753

An optional tour of the Storm Peak Laboratory, located at the top of Mt. Werner, will be conducted during the meeting. A demonstration of ground based snow and aerosol measurement facilities of the laboratory, which are available for ground validation, is planned. Attendees are invited to demonstrate their own ground measurement systems where practical to transport or satellite–based measurements when overpasses are available. Assistance will be given to those interested, in transporting their instruments up to and back down from the laboratory if they wish to participate. Real time or prior space-based measurements of snowfall in the Mt. Werner area, to be validated against laboratory observations, are also encouraged. Attendees will be given the choice to either to ski up to the laboratory (using the lifts) or be transported using a combination of the lifts and snow mobiles.

If you are interested in bringing an instrument to the Storm Peak Lab, please contact Ian McCubbin.

For official Storm Peak Lab visits, lift tickets for $6/day will be provided.

Discounted lift tickets of $48/day will be available for family members with 2 weeks advance notice. Normal rate is $85 per day). Be sure to contact Ian McCubbin before 15 March 2008 to let him know how many tickets you will be purchasing.
