Description
Documentation for a snow study by Lyle Watts showing a needled branch mostly covered with snow. A pencil lies beside the branch for scale. Mr. Watts measured the granulation of the snow and the effect of the needles on the rate of melting. He has the numbers 257454 at the lower right corner of the photo and may have used this to record his findings. Most of the snow studies were done in Idaho.
