Forecast for the Skyline Area Mountains

Brett Kobernik
Issued by Brett Kobernik for
Monday, February 12, 2018

The majority of the terrain along the Skyline has a LOW avalanche danger. There is a scattered MODERATE avalanche danger in the upper elevations where the wind has drifted the new snow into slabs. These alone don't pose much threat unless they happen to break into old weak snow near the ground. The most likely places for this to happen is on northwest through east facing steep slopes above about 9500' in elevation.
