special announcement We will issue intermittent advisories through April as conditions warrant. The next advisory will be posted on Friday April 15, 2016. We will continue to post observations as they are especially important to the backcountry community this time of year. If you see anything you feel we should know about, please submit an observation. |

recent activity There were zero reports from the backcountry on Wednesday, and reports from resorts indicated wet snow at the surface would move with ski cuts. |
weather A cold front is approaching and should arrive in the Wasatch by late morning. Temperatures should drop from the high 30's F to low 30's F throughout the day as colder air moves into the region.
