Welcome back.... we missed you! But in your absence we've revamped our website. It might take a minte or two to get used to and I bet you'll find it very intuitive and user friendly.
In addition, we've been working hard on a couple of special events. First in the queue is The Boondockers annual premeire on Thursday October 25th. We're back at Brewvies and all the details are found
HERE.
Next up is our 11th annual Utah Snow and Avalanche Workshop (USAW) on Saturday October 27th at the Mountain America Expo Center in Sandy. Yep... the same day and location as the Intermountain Snowmobile Show. The morning offers a two hour long sled specific avy breakout session with topics pretinent to all mountain riding and avalanche safety. Deets and registration
HERE.Afterwards, you can roll into the general session for an all you can eat avalanche buffet that runs 'til 4:00. More details and registration are found
HERE.In addition, I wanna give a big shout out to Mike Poulsen and Tri-City Performance in partnership with Polaris who have supported the UAC for over a decade. Mike and his team generously donated two new "loaner" sleds for us to use this winter. This vital partnership allows forecasters see more terrain, issue more accurate forecasts, and ultimately save more lives.
Early October storms stacked up close to two feet of snow that settled to about half that depth in the past few weeks. These are the building blocks to our upcoming winter and we'll have to keep an eye on the weather to determine the furture course of strength and stability. Remember- it's super thin right now and chances of slamming into a season ending rock or stump vastly outweight the possibility of triggering an avalanche. However, if there's enough snow to ride, then there's enough snow to slide.
