Forecast for the Uintas Area Mountains
Monday, December 26, 2016
Heads up... the avalanche danger is higher on the south half of the range from Trial Lake to Currant Creek to Daniels.
On steep upper elevation slopes, particularly in the wind zone, the avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE today. Human triggered avalanches are LIKELY, especially on all steep, wind drifted slopes. Once triggered, today's avalanches have the potential to break deeper and wider than you might expect.
Steep slopes with recent deposits of wind drifted snow at mid elevations offer MODERATE avalanche danger and human triggered avalanches are POSSIBLE.
Low elevation wind sheltered terrain and most south facing slopes offer generally LOW avalanche danger.
