AbstractAs a result of an historical sketch of scientific activity on Mount Washington, New Hampshire, it is shown that the late-season snow-bed that annually forms in Tuckerman Ravine disappeared, on the average, during the first week in August for the period 1922–58 as compared with an average date of 11 August for the period 1878–1906. This appears to correspond to a rise in spring (April to May) and summer (June to September) mean temperatures of 0.9° F. (0.5° C.) for each season from 1872–87 to 1933–58. The snow-bed probably has persisted through only one ablation season during recent years, that of 1926, although some evidence exists that it may have lasted through an occasional summer during the early and middle nineteenth century.
