Forecast for the Skyline Area Mountains

Brett Kobernik
Issued by Brett Kobernik on
Monday morning, January 25, 2016

A CONSIDERABLE avalanche danger exists in the mid and upper elevation steep slopes. Conditions are dangerous because not all slopes are going to avalanche and it is very difficult to determine which ones will. Areas that have received the most snow and wind are the most suspect. Avalanches may break into weak layers near the ground. Let the snowpack settle for a few days and adjust to the new load.

Weather and Snow

The Manti Skyline has picked up 12 to 20 inches of new snow since Saturday. We still have light snow falling in some areas. Wind speeds have dropped off but there was enough wind during the storm to form some fresh drifts.
