Forecast for the Moab Area Mountains
Wednesday, January 18, 2017
The avalanche danger remains MODERATE and heightened avalanche conditions exist on specific terrain features. Primary areas of concern continue to be steep, rocky, upper-mid to upper elevation terrain that faces NW-N-E. Pay special attention to slopes that have steep convexities and blind break-overs - this type of terrain can lure you far down slope, well below where an avalanche is likely to fracture. Elsewhere, the avalanche danger is generally LOW.
