Lo esencial

The majority of the terrain on the Skyline has a LOW avalanche danger.

You can pretty much travel around most anywhere and be at ease that you won't trigger an avalanche.

However, there is still a chance that a person could trigger a large and deadly avalanche on northerly facing slopes steeper than 30˚ above about 10,000'.

Avoid those slopes and you will stay safe.

    This winter's Persistent Weak Layer that formed in Jan/Feb is a very unique and unusual problem. We have very few avalanches in our database that break into sugary facets at this time of the season. Under normal situations, the big warm up a couple of week's ago should've ended this problem. But, the layer of facets has produced large avalanches since then. I continue to avoid the steepest northerly facing slopes. I'm not sure when we will be able to call those slopes 100% stable.

Snow and Weather

Current Conditions

Temperatures stayed cold on Wednesday with only the more direct sunny slopes becoming slightly damp late afternoon. Temperatures dropped back to around 20˚F overnight and the strong northwest wind is now pretty light.

Mountain Weather

We'll have sun today with temperatures into the mid 40s and light to moderate speed northwest wind. The rest of the week looks similar. Temperatures are warmer on Friday and we'll see some scattered clouds through the weekend. The next chance for snow is around Tuesday of next week. As of now it looks like a decent storm.
