Grouse Camp
Grouse Camp, WA is located in the Cascade Range, with elevations ranging from 2,500 to 6,000 feet above sea level. The region experiences an average annual snowfall of 400 inches, with an average peak snowpack of 150 inches. The nearby ski resorts include Stevens Pass and Mission Ridge, which benefit greatly from the abundant snowfall. In recent years, climate trends have shown a decrease in snowpack due to warmer temperatures and less precipitation. This has significant impacts on downstream hydrology, particularly for the Wenatchee River, whose flow is fed by snowmelt from the surrounding mountains. In addition, the snowpack serves as a critical source of water for local creeks and reservoirs. It is important to continue monitoring these trends and their impacts on the region's water resources.

Mountain & avalanche safety
- Know before you go
- Check today's avalanche bulletin from the regional avalanche center before any backcountry / side-country travel. Conditions can shift dramatically between morning and afternoon on storm days.
- Carry the gear, know how to use it
- Beacon, shovel, probe. Practice companion rescue on a calm day, not during a real burial.
- Mind the weather window
- Heavy snow + wind builds wind slabs at ridgelines. The day after a storm is often the riskiest in the backcountry.
- Read the snowpack
- A weak, faceted, or wind-loaded snowpack — like the depth and trend shown above — is exactly what feeds slab avalanches. Dig a pit or check the bulletin before committing to steep terrain.
Track Grouse Camp in the Snoflo app
Save this station as a favorite, set push alerts when snowfall crosses a threshold (e.g. "alert me when Grouse Camp reports 6″ new"), and Snoflo's iOS app will push the moment the SNOTEL station crosses.
About Grouse Camp
Where does the snow data for Grouse Camp come from?
Snowpack depth, SWE, snowfall, and air temperature come from the NRCS SNOTEL station 507. Forecast comes from the NOAA / yr.no feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
NRCS SNOTEL stations report continuously (typically hourly). Snoflo refreshes throughout the day; check the "as of" timestamp on the snowpack hero card.
What's the difference between snowpack depth and SWE?
Snowpack depth measures how tall the snow is. SWE (snow water equivalent) measures how much WATER is in that snow. SWE matters more for hydrology and ski-season prediction since dry powder packs less water than wet/spring snow at the same depth.
How is "% of normal" calculated?
Today's snowpack is compared to the historical average snowpack on this calendar day across the station's full record. 100% = right on average; 130% = a big year; 60% = a thin year.
Can I get alerts when fresh snow hits?
Yes -- snow alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this station, set a snowfall threshold (e.g. "alert me when 6+ inches"), and you'll get a push the moment NRCS reports the crossing.
