Comments: | Effect of forest on the melting of snow. Drifts of snow pile up in the small opening between tree groups, and due partly to their depth and partly to the shade, they usually remain from one to two weeks after all snow has disappeared from open situations. Western Yellow pine. Early spring. Drift of snow is forest 6 inches deep-all gone in open. (Used in Foerster, 1911.) |
