Forecast for the Uintas Area Mountains
Saturday, December 16, 2017
In the wind zone at and above treeline, a MODERATE avalanche danger exists and human triggered avalanches are possible on steep wind drifted slopes, particularly those facing the north half of the compass and especially slopes that had old snow prior to this storm.
Lose a little elevation or simply switch aspect and you lose the hazard. Slopes facing the south half half of the compass along with terrain at mid and lower elevations, offer a LOW avalanche danger and human triggered slides are unlikely.
