Advisory: Provo Area Mountains | Issued by Evelyn Lees for Sunday - December 17, 2017 - 6:55am |
---|
special announcement With no change in conditions expected or any storms on the horizon, we will be issuing intermittent advisories. The next update will be Monday the 18th of December. Check out the blog Avalanche Fatalities During Uphill Travel. Backcountry travelers need a clear focus on evaluating terrain during their ascent, as well as their descents. |
current conditions The splitting trough was another bust, leaving behind less than an inch of snow at most mountain locations. Winds have shifted to the north, and are light. Temperatures in mountains are in the low teens to singlle digits. The low to mid elevation slopes in the Provo area mountains below about 9500' are mostly bare, with only patchy snow. On shady, upper elevation slopes, total snow on the ground was around a foot deep when Drew went up to Primrose cirque at the beginning of the month. There looks to be a bit more snow on Cascade Ridge. |
recent activity No new avalanche activity has been reported in the Wasatch for over a week. |
weather High pressure will once again dominate through about Tuesday, with a warming trend. Highs will once again warm into the 30s and then 40s. Winds will remain very light from the north on Sunday. On the plus side, there is a small storm in the forecast for late Wednesday into Thursday, and maybe again next weekend. |
