Togwotee Pass

The avalanche danger is Low today. Avalanches are unlikely with the exception being wet loose avalanches in very steep sunlit terrain during the heat of the day. Expect any avalanche activity of this variety to be shallow and low in volume. Remember that Low danger does not mean “No” danger. Be aware of changing conditions and be prepared to adjust your plans if encountering unstable snow today.

( Discussion is generated from the previous day's afternoon forecast. )Expect mostly dry conditions overnight and into tomorrow. Occasional flurries are possible in the Togwotee Pass/Continental Divide area with accumulations of less than an inch. Temperatures will drop overnight into the teens to low twenties between 8,000-9,000 feet. Daytime highs in that elevation band tomorrow will climb into the mid thirties. Winds will gradually slow down from 25 mph into the 10-15 mph range tomorrow and be out of the west.Expect minimal change in the snowpack situation tomorrow. Temperatures at all elevations will be low enough to allow for another night of crust formation and overall strengthening of the snowpack. Avalanches will be unlikely with the exception being low volume wet loose avalanches on very steep sunlit slopes during the heat of the day. The danger will be Low throughout the day. Remember that Low does not mean “No”. Be aware of changing conditions and be prepared to adjust your plans if encountering unstable snow.
