Abstract:

Trail signs are normally mounted at a set height on a post planted in the ground. Once the snow has piled up over the sign, the sign is no longer effective. Ranger Districts with winter trails programs have been dealing with the problems of signing snow trails for as long as they have managed winter trails. This report describes signpost systems that work best in shallow, moderate, and deep snowpacks.
