Talk about taking it up the arse. From what I saw they have 5 foot high snow piles(From their shovelling), and now 7 to 14 inches. Look at that! 5 feet snow drifts pluss the 14 inches worst case, 6. 2 of piled high snow.

Here in Salt Lake I live on a culdesac and we've had multiple large piles (six or so 6-8 meters^3) around 13-16 feet high. Good times and this was just in the valley. The mountains always have about four to twelve times as much.

8^3 meters? half a kilometer is a large pile of snow indeed

Sorry, I'm talking volume wise. I should have put "cubic meters".

I'm pretty sure I was talking merely about my short street. If I wanted to talk about the biggest pile I've seen it would be quite a bit higher. But, this is just dick waving; it really depends on how you use it.
