Avalanche Advisory
Advisory: Skyline Area Mountains Issued by Brett Kobernik for Wednesday - March 16, 2016 - 6:52am
bottom line

The majority of the terrain has a LOW avalanche danger. However, a MODERATE avalanche danger does exist on the steep upper elevation north through east facing terrain where recent fresh drifts may still be sensitive to a rider. Avoid obviously wind effected areas in the higher terrain. Human triggered avalanches are possible.
current conditions

The Manti Skyline picked 4 to 6 inches of snow in the higher terrain on Monday and an inch or two more overnight. The wind has been blowing quite a bit from the west northwest. Riders on Tuesday reported wind drifting. They did not find the new snow to be sensitive but they did not get into the higher bowls either. Those higher east facing bowls are where you would most likely find fresh drifts that may crack out on you.
