Forecast for the Skyline Area Mountains

Thursday morning, February 15, 2018
The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE on slopes steeper than 35˚ above 9500' that face northwest, north and east especially in areas that received the most new snow. New snow and wind drifted snow have added weight on top of the shallow weak snowpack. That said, things won't be super sensitive or "hair trigger". Some of these slopes may avalanche, some may not. This makes things quite tricky. Outside of the terrain mentioned above, the avalanche danger is much lower.
