Abstract
Anderson's ideal snow‐conservation forest and “Operation Snow Pack” (Western Water News, Aug. 1956) revive memories of Trans., AGU 1940, pp. 920–25, and Sci. Amer. Sup. Sep. 7, 1912 (Vol. 74, no. 1914).In 1912 while the Wagon Wheel Gap experiment was under way, I proposed the ‘honey‐comb’ forest, timber screens on the lips of canyons and timber‐line screens to accumulate and conserve the snow. In 1940 at Seattle, Charles A. Connaughton proposed a similar plan for the lodge‐pole‐pine forests of the Rocky Mountain Forest.
