Forecast for the Moab Area Mountains
Friday, April 14, 2017
The avalanche danger is LOW and generally stable snow conditions exist. This time of year, focus your attention on loose, wet avalanche activity as the days heat up. Signs of instability include pinwheels, roller balls, and sloppy wet snow up around your boot tops. Change your aspect or move higher in elevation if these signs are present.
Snow surfaces are very hard and slides for life are a real possibility. Consider carrying an ice ax or a whippet for self arrest.
