<br><br>Didn't the native Americans call a Chinook wind a "snow eater" or something like that? (A bit of brain sludge from who-knows-where.) So Wickstad might be onto something, perhaps a warm wind with low humidity can melt snow fastest of all.<br><br>Between sun and rain, I'd vote for sun, but that's just a guess. Some years ago, in July, my brothers and I left our tents on the Challenger Glacier and went to climb Mt Fury. When we returned after a long sunny day, our tents were perched on pedestals about a foot high. That was the most dramatic snow melt/settlement event I've ever observedI have a question for those in the know. What melts the snopack more, hot sunny weather, or rain?
