  • Northwest Weather and Avalanche Center
    Northwest Weather and Avalanche Center 2006-2007 Annual Report Report prepared by Mark Moore, Kenny Kramer and Garth Ferber A partnership between the USDA Forest Service, Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission, National Park Service, National Weather Service, Pacific Northwest Ski Area Association, Washington State Department of Transportation, Washington State Snowpark and Snowmobile Programs, USDA Forest Service Fee Demo programs, Title II RAC programs, Ski Schools, Friends of the Avalanche Center and others. United States Forest Service Department of Pacific Agriculture Northwest Region Cover Photo credits: This photo of a snow roller (snow pinwheel, snow donut) was taken along the east slopes of the northern Washington Cascades in Mid-March of 2007 by Mike Stanford, Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) avalanche control technician, during an avalanche control and reconnaissance mission on Washington Pass. While snow rollers are common occurrences during spring time warming in many mountainous regions, most rollers are observed as a solid wheel and often end up as wheel fragments as they break apart in the rolling process. A mature snow roller of this size without the inner middle is less common, especially totally intact like this one is. Most rollers like the one shown initially form through warming and melting of near surface snow. With surface warming, a small clump of snow may release from steeper terrain, warming rocks or snow laden tree boughs. With time the small unstable mass begins to roll and gather concentric rings of surface snow as it descends down slope. The rolling action may produce mechanical separation of the less dense middle (formed initially when compression of the snow is slight) from the more compact outer edges (formed with more compressive forces as the wheel increases in size), producing the snow donut pictured.

Whetten, R. B. Waitt, D. A. Swanson, G. R. Byerly, D. B. Booth, M. J. Hetherington, and R. E. Zartman INTRODUCTION Bedrock of the Chelan 1:100,000 quadrangle displays a long and varied geologic history (fig. 1). Pioneer geologic work in the quadrangle began with Bailey Willis (1887, 1903) and I. C. Russell (1893, 1900). A. C. Waters (1930, 1932, 1938) made the first definitive geologic studies in the area (fig. 2). He mapped and described the metamorphic rocks and the lavas of the Columbia River Basalt Group in the vicinity of Chelan as well as the arkoses within the Chiwaukum graben (fig. 1). B. M. Page (1939a, b) detailed much of the structure and petrology of the metamorphic and igneous rocks in the Chiwaukum Mountains, further described the arkoses, and, for the first time, defined the alpine glacial stages in the area. C. L. Willis (1950, 1953) was the first to recognize the Chiwaukum graben, one of the more significant structural features of the region. The pre-Tertiary schists and gneisses are continuous with rocks to the north included in the Skagit Metamorphic Suite of Misch (1966, p. 102-103). Peter Misch and his students established a framework of North Cascade metamorphic geology which underlies much of our construct, especially in the western part of the quadrangle. Our work began in 1975 and was essentially completed in 1980.

    fllie M®��1f�l]�r;r;m Published by Seattle, Washington..., 'December15, 1953 THE MOUNTAINEERS, INC. ITS OBJECT To explore and study the mountains, forests, and water cours­ es of the Northwest; to gather into permanent form the history and traditions of this region; to preserve by encouragement of protective legislation or otherwise, the natural beauty of North­ west America; to make expeditions into these regions in ful­ fillment of the above purposes ; to encourage a spirit of good fellowship among all lovers of out-door life. THE MOUNTAINEER LIBRARY The Club's library is one of the largest mountaineering col­ lections in the country. Books, periodicals, and pamphlets from many parts of the world are assembled for the interested reader. Mountaineering and skiing make up the largest part of the col­ lection, but travel, photography, nature study, and other allied subjects are well represented. After the period 1915 to 1926 in which The Mountaineers received books from the Bureau of Associate Mountaineering Clubs of North America, the Board of Trustees has continuously appropriated money for the main­ tenance and expansion of the library. The map collection is a valued source of information not only for planning trips and climbs, but for studying problems in other areas. NOTICE TO AUTHORS AND COMMUNICATORS Manuscripts offered for publication should be accurately typed on one side only of good, white, bond paper 81f2xll inches in size. Drawings or photographs that are intended for use as illustrations should be kept separate from the manuscript, not inserted in it, but should be transmitted at the same time.
