Most of the terrain has a LOW avalanche danger today. You may find scattered small pockets of snow that could crack along the higher ridges. Continue to only put one person on a steep slope at a time and clear the avalanche runout zones at the bottom.

Special Announcements

If you sign up for AmazonSmile and designate the Utah Avalanche Center as your favorite charity, they will donate a portion of everything you spend to the UAC. It doesn't cost you a penny and we'd really appreciate the help.

Weather and Snow

We picked up 2 to 4 inches of new snow in the last 24 hours. The wind has been light and the temperatures are around 20 degrees in the high country. The new snow will not have changed the avalanche danger much. Riding conditions should continue to be good.
