About this station

Loomis Park

Loomis Park, located in the Snowy Range Mountains of Wyoming at an elevation of 9,600 feet, experiences an average annual snowfall of 200 inches. The peak snowpack typically reaches an average of 100 inches in March. Nearby ski resorts such as Snowy Range Ski Area and Medicine Bow Lodge offer fantastic winter recreation opportunities. Climate trends suggest increasing temperatures and decreasing snowpack in the region, which may negatively impact downstream rivers, creek, and reservoirs. The Laramie River, Little Laramie River, and Lake Hattie Reservoir are important hydrology constituents that rely on the Snowy Range snowpack for their water supply. The snowpack serves as an essential source of water for these constituents, and provides critical ecological services such as supporting fish and wildlife habitats.

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.

FAQ

About Loomis Park

Where does the snow data for Loomis Park come from?

Snowpack depth, SWE, snowfall, and air temperature come from the NRCS SNOTEL station 597. 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.
