The danger today will depend mostly on the amount of new snow, and especially, on the amount of wind. Weather forecasts are one of the most uncertain things in life, especially in rural areas, so you will need to carefully test the snow as you travel today. Be sure to regularly dig down with your hand and see how well the new snow is bonding to the underlying layers, plus regularly jump on small, test slopes to see how they respond. Especially on slopes where the wind has been blowing , you'll find denser, wind slabs that will crack with your weight. I was certainly finding some yesterday on the wind exposed ridges in the La Sal Mountains.

The pre-existing snowpack is mostly stable but the weakest layers are on the pre-existing snow surface. In some of the upper elevation, steep, shaded slopes, I have been finding more near-surface faceted snow just under the snow surface, especially in repeater slide paths. As the snow piles up, we should see some storm slabs sliding both on the preexisting sun crusts and on the weak, preexisting faceted snow and surface hoar on the shady aspects.
