Weather and Snow
We've been busy maintaining and upgrading our Uinta weather station network... it's super solid and ready to roll for this winter.
Here's the big picture... high pressure camps out overhead, delivering warmer, dry weather this weekend, and that'll help to evaporate our thin layer of early season snow. In other words, all but the highest shady slopes will melt back to their fall coat of brown... which, this early in the season is a good thing! Peering into the weather forecast crystal ball, it looks like a shift in the weather brings cool and unsettled weather this week. Nothing to get too excited about... just enough to peak some interest as the band runs through its soundcheck.
