Forecast for the Moab Area Mountains
Wednesday, January 6, 2016
The avalanche danger is MODERATE on mid and upper elevation slopes steeper than 35 degrees that face W-N-E and in areas where you can detect recent deposits of wind drifted snow. This danger will rise throughout the day and could reach CONSIDERABLE by tomorrow if significant snow totals pan out. There also remains a MODERATE danger for triggering a deeper persistent slab avalanche on similar aspects right around tree line and above.
