Forecast for the Moab Area Mountains
Thursday, April 6, 2017
The avalanche danger is LOW and mostly stable snow conditions exist. With daytime heating we may see a few loose, wet sluffs, or point releases coming off the rocks. Falling rocks are also an issue in steep, high alpine terrain, and "slides-for-life" are possible on hard snow. Conditions above tree line are becoming more akin to mountaineering then ski touring, and backcountry travelers venturing into these areas may want to consider bringing helmets, crampons, whippets and or ice axes.
