Forecast for the Uintas Area Mountains

MODERATE avalanche danger exists near and above treeline, especially in the wind zone. While not widespread and becoming more difficult to initiate, deep, dangerous, human triggered avalanches are still POSSIBLE. I'd tread lightly in steep, rocky terrain facing the north half of the compass and continue avoiding slopes with a shallow, weak, snowpack.
On a go-anywhere base with a little cream on top, there's no shortage of great riding options with less dangerous avalanche conditions. You'll find generally LOW avalanche danger today on slopes facing the south half of the compass and terrain less than 30 degrees in steepness.
