Snow Still Sticking Around in the Rockies

UPDATE: Glacier National Park has uploaded some additional snow photos to Facebook of one of their trails, saying "Recent pictures of the Grinnell Glacier Trail. The unusually heavy winter snows are lingering well into the summer and are being worked on by the trail crew this week."

I blogged last month about various results from the unusually snowy and late winter in the West, including unusually large waterfalls. Photo Gallery user wasatchfrontweatherteam uploaded photos July 30th from near Salt Lake City, Utah, saying "There is still snow in Little Cottonwood Canyon at the end of July. We saw many rivulets and even waterfalls of icy cold snow melt."

The National Snow Center is also still showing significant snow in Wyoming, considerably less than same time in 2010. In fact, I couldn't find another year this decade with anything close to this (NOHRSC's maps only go back to 2000).
