special announcement Huge thanks to the Park City Professional Ski Patrol for hosting Monday nights avy awareness presentation. Great turnout.... great vibe... and of course, great collective energy. The information in this advisory expires 24 hours after the date and time posted, but will be updated by 7:00 AM on Saturday Dec. 16th. |
current conditions No change from earlier in the week. Skies are clear with temperatures in the upper 20's and low 30's... a couple degrees warmer than in the City of Salt this morning. North and northwest winds are calm at the trailheads, but along the high ridges, they're blowing 15-25 mph. It's been nearly two weeks since our last storm. Despite the lack of fresh snow, total snow depths are hanging tough, still hovering just around two feet. Getting around the range is slow and travel limited to road rides and grassy meadows.
Road rides and rock free, grassy meadows are the only game in town. |
recent activity No recent avalanche activity to report. |
weather
There's some hope in sight. Not a big storm, but maybe enough to blow out the valley mank late in the week. In the meantime, a weak weather system brushes by the area late this afternoon through tonight, bringing increasing clouds and a chance of light snow. High pressure returns for Thursday and Friday. The next chance for appreciable snow comes Friday night into Saturday, and although details regarding how much moisture and snow remains uncertain at this time, it appears a few inches of snow are possible. |
