Snow Characteristics Comments
Just a few inches at the higher elevations and most of that is on the north facing slopes. Still a ways off from any riding and turning on the north slope of the Uintas.
Comments
The places that many people will look to for some early season turns and riding is still quite bony and thin. Even the high peaks are far from white.
Not much snow on the south facing slopes at Bald Mtn. With a good foot of snow some of these grassy areas might be a place to do some easy riding or go for a walk on the skis.
