A weather station was established at Sam Lake in the British Moun- tains of the northern Yukon Territory in the summer of 1974. Information was collected on temperature, winds, cloud cover and precipitation. The summer condi- tions were found to be influenced mainly by arctic weather disturbances originating in the Beaufort Sea. A comparison of the information recorded at Sam Lake with that from coastal stations served to demonstrate the buffering effect of the mountains.
