A small California town in the Central Sierra Nevada isn't a typical tourist destination. But over the last two months, residents coalesced around a new monument that drew attention from around the country.

A Friday snow survey revealed the state has much ground to gain to reach its historic average levels by April 1.

But the past two winters have seen above-average rain and snow levels. If the Sierra snowpack grows to 100% or more of its historic average by April 1, it will mark the first time in 25 years with three average or above-average years in a row. The last consecutive trio of wet winters came in 1998, 1999 and 2000.
