Missing data determined as follows: (a) Date - Depth of snow and relative depth compared to other snowpit leads to conclusion this is more representative of a mid-season snowpack (b) Time- Warmer air temperature and impact deeper in the snowpack indicates later in the day observation (c) Aspect - Relative to first pit, location would be on aspect more likely to hold snow and experience temperature gradient exhibited later in the day. (d) Zone - ATL due to proximity to I70 in CO and temperature gradient evidence

Missing data determined as follows: (a) Date estimated based on snow depth not only captured in this pit but also relative to the second pit which is deeper. Generally indicates more of a mid-season depth. (b) Time of day determined based on temperature gradient, with indication of warming starting at surface but likely still early day (c) Aspect estimated based on development of temperature gradient and relative depth compared to other pit (d) Zone estimated ATL based on pit label as near I70 in CO
