Forecast for the Skyline Area Mountains

Brett Kobernik
Issued by Brett Kobernik on
Friday morning, March 28, 2025
The majority of the terrain on the Manti Skyline has a LOW to MODERATE danger rating and human triggered avalanches are not very likely.
A CONSIDERABLE avalanche danger still exists in very steep upper elevation terrain that faces north, northeast and east where there is still a slim chance that a person could trigger a deep and dangerous avalanche.
Avoidance is key as there is no sure way to determine which slopes are stable and which are not.

Description
There is still a small chance of triggering a deep and dangerous avalanche today. Unfortunately, the most likely places to do this are the exact places we often find ourselves at this time of the season: upper elevation north through east facing steep terrain.
The majority of the slopes will stay in place. Some will release if provoked. You will not see any signs of danger. The snowpack will feel stable and "bomber". There is no way to tell which slopes will stay in place and which ones might release if you get onto them. All you can do is avoid that terrain. Or roll the dice.
