The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), a close partner of Eagle County Conservation District, runs a network of snowpack and climate sensors called SNOTEL (short for "SNOwpack TELemetry"). SNOTEL stations have been gathering data since 1980, providing critical information for water supply forecasts and resource management decisions.
Here you can find snow and precipitation maps that have been generated using SNOTEL data for both the Colorado Headwaters River Basin and for Eagle County, as well as a state-wide drought map.
