We just released the first UAC podcast of the 2018/2019 season
"Guilt". It's one of many short pieces (5 min) to mix in between our longer conversations.
Join the UAC, Greg Stump, and Scot Schmidt for the 30th Anniversary of
Blizzard of Aahhh's at Brewvies on January 24. Scott Schmidt and Greg Stump will be signing posters and the MCs for an evening of big air, big hair, and lots of laughs.

Skies are clear with mountain temps in the low 20s. Winds veered clockwise overnight and are light from the east-northeast. Fair weather persists through Monday with a storm out of the west/southwest for mid-week. Some of the models are quite bullish on projected snow and water amounts. Stay tuned. For today, expect clear skies, light easterly winds, and mountain temps rising to the mid to upper 20s in the high country. Should be a good day to get out and about.
Skiing and riding conditions are good with pretty darn good coverage across the range, even at the lower elevations. Total snow depths are a settled 45-55". Many trailheads and lower elevation exits have snow depths from 35-45" (elevations roughly 6000'). Sunny aspects are crusted and the best snow can be found in the wind sheltered shady terrain.
No new avalanche activity was reported from the backcountry yesterday. Ski area control teams triggered a few wind slabs and cornice fall with explosives along the Ogden skyline.
