Weather and Snow
Ted Scroggin, avy pro extraordinaire and the glue that holds the Uinta program together, was out and about after the last storm and reports about 10" of medium density snow in the high country. Not enough to ride on just yet, but none-the-less, these are the building blocks of our winter snowpack and something to keep an eye on as the winter unfolds.
