How this works
Snow depth is measured at the nearest NRCS SNOTEL station. New snow, temperature and wind come from Open-Meteo at each trailhead’s elevation. Snow temperature is estimated from the air: it can’t go above freezing, and clear nights chill the surface below the air temperature. Wax bands are generic temperature ranges, so match them to your brand’s chart. Grooming is reported by each area on Nordic Pulse; we add only what the weather says about it.
