Explanation:
A snow-board is a flat board that can be used to collect new snowfall. A snow-board should be placed horizontally in a location that will be most representative of the average snowfall - not under trees, obstructions, or on the north side of structures in the shadows. For example, a good placement would be near the middle of your lawn away from any nearby trees. A good general size for a snow-board is 24" x 16", and any type of wood should work fine. A few coats of latex paint or perhaps deck sealant would be a good idea, to seal out the moisture and prevent the board from warping. Be sure to mark the location of the board with a flag or other marker, so that you can find the board after a new snowfall
