Ability to track Snow Depth
WCDev:
Just working on the 3.1 plan - I've added this one there, but it may still move out (draft plan).

They provide an automated method that is easier on the pocket - if not the brain.

Perhaps an Arduino connected to a downward-pointing ultrasonic sensor would work. A software library (free) converts the pulse return time to a fairly accurate distance measurement. The two devices together will cost between 10 and 20 USD.
