Forecaster: Grant Helgeson

Keep in mind that conditions change dramatically and that information may not be relevent for later in the week.

GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS

If you see or trigger an avalanche it would do the community good to report it. Your observations help to save the lives of others. The forecast area is large, and due to funding cuts I only have one field day to spend on the Skyline. This means that I can't possibly see it all. I need you to help me, help you. Please share your observations and experiences:

Shoot me an email: grant@utahavalanchecenter.org and or call me on my cell: 406-370-1337. Thanks!
