current conditions The Tony Grove Snotel reports 68 inches of total snow containing 105% of average water for the date, and it's 24 degrees at the 8400' site. The UDOT Hwy 89 Logan Summit weather station reports 17 degrees this morning and 15 to 25 mph northwest wind overnight. Despite the recent mild weather, observers report finding pockets of nice re-crystallized soft snow on due north facing upper elevation slopes. You'll find supportable spring-like snow on most other slopes in the backcountry, softening during the day with direct sun.

weather Expect sunny and fair weather in the mountains again, with high temperatures at 8500' around 40 degrees and a moderate westerly breeze. It'll be mostly clear again tonight, with low temperatures around 28 degrees and west winds increasing slightly. Similar weather is likely tomorrow, only slightly warmer, with increasing clouds and west winds in the teens on the ridge-tops. Snow showers are likely on Friday, and some accumulating snow is possible over the weekend, but the new snow will be measured in inches and centimeters rather than feet. That's okay, even an inch or two will help matters significantly. Check out our one-stop weather page........HERE
