Forecast for the Uintas Area Mountains
Monday, December 4, 2017
At and above treeline a CONSIDERABLE avalanche danger exists. Both human triggered and natural avalanches are likely on steep wind drifted slopes, particularly those facing the north half of the compass. Remember- any slide that breaks to old snow near the ground is going to instantly ruin your day as you get slammed into rocks and stumps, barely hidden under the thin facade of our shallow snowpack.
Steep, wind drifted mid elevation terrain offers MODERATE avalanche danger and human triggered avalanches are possible.
LOW avalanche danger is found on south facing slopes and terrain that had no snow prior to Sunday's storm.
