Mean annual air temp. -9.04ºC (2001)
Snow depth 28.7 cm (April 2002).

MEAN ANNUAL GROUND TEMPERATURE AT OR NEAR DEPTH OF ZERO ANNUAL AMPLITUDE (°C) – report  value for most recent year or 12 month interval -8.5 ºC (May 3, 2002 10m depth ground temp.)

Depth of zero annual amplitude (or depth of measurement reported above)  (m) Around 10m

AIR TEMPERATURE AND SNOW COVER THICKNESS/DENSITY MEASUREMENTS AT THE BOREHOLE SITE (indicate frequency of observations): Air temperature: Yes [ ] No [X]    Snow thickness: Yes[ ] No[X]   Density: Yes [ ] No[X]  We will plan to install air temp. summer of 2002.
