Yampa Valley's Heavy Snow Climate Challenges
Managing log homes in one of Colorado's snowiest regions
Extreme Snow Loads
Routt County's heavy snowfall creates significant structural and moisture challenges:
- • Snow loads exceeding 150 lbs per square foot
- • Extended periods of snow and ice contact
- • Ice dam formation and roof stress
- • Foundation-level snow accumulation
Moisture Infiltration Risks
Heavy snow and frequent freeze-thaw cycles create complex moisture challenges:
- • Wind-driven snow penetration through gaps
- • Spring melt water infiltration
- • Humidity from snow sublimation
- • Freeze-thaw damage to chinking systems
Thermal Cycling Stress
Frequent temperature changes stress log structures throughout the year:
- • Daily freeze-thaw cycles in spring and fall
