Mohave County miner., 1907-01-05

The snow fall last Monday night was one of the heaviest since 1881. In the Wallapai mountains the snow is said to be four feet deep on the level and in the Cerbat range it is nearly two feet deep. Kingman was covered with a blanket of the beautiful and even the hills close to the Colorado river were blanketed. At Yucca the snow- fall was greater than ever before known. From all over northern Ari- zona comes report of exceptionally heavy snowfall. It will be some weeks before the snow disappears from the low foothills, while the high CT mountains will carry the snow well into the spring months. This snow- fall, while of great inconvenience at the present time will be of incalcul- able benefit during the balance of the year.
