We're off to a good start in the Uinta's and our weak snow issues are isolated to a handful of upper elevation slopes facing the north half of the compass which retained snow from late September. While making up a small portion of the terrain available to ride in, if your travels take you into steep, upper elevation, north facing terrain, remember that any avalanche you trigger has the possibility of breaking into old snow, creating a deep, dangerous slide.
Here's a nice, deep pit from Weber Canyon. We haven't seen a solid homogenous snowpack like this for about 10 years. While things are looking good, there's still some weak snow near the ground we'll need to keep an eye on. Deutschlander photo.
My travels to the south half of the range yesterday revealed snow depths about half of the North Slope. However, most of the storm snow fell on bare, warm ground, creating a "right side up" snow structure.
