Proceeds support the Utah Avalanche Center - Moab and Second Chance Wildlife Rehabilitation. For more info and to purchase tickets, go here. |
current conditions It's spring time in the desert and this is the tale of the incredible shrinking snowpack. Warm temperatures are taking a toll, and south and westerly facing slopes that just a week ago were plastered white, are now showing patches of rock and bare ground. Overnight freezes are making for decent corn conditons on slopes that face SE-S-W, while north facing aspects are an uninviting mix of wind crusts and hard surfaces. Wind, temperature and humidity on Pre Laurel Peak. (11,700') Storm totals and temperature in Gold Basin. (10,000') Snow totals, temperature and snow/water equivalent at the Geyser Pass Trailhead. (9600') |
