Salt River and Wyoming Ranges

The general avalanche hazard is MODERATE today. Slabs to one foot in depth lie on steep wind loaded slopes at higher elevations. These slabs lie on slick crusts and could be triggered today by backcountry users. Once triggered the potential exists to pull out deeper weak layers of faceted snow. Sunlit aspects on steep slopes or below cliff areas could see sloughs developing into larger slides as the day warms. At lower elevations the avalanche hazard is LOW, however isolated pockets of shallow slabs could be released in steep areas.
