Salt River and Wyoming Ranges

The general avalanche hazard is LOW today. Over the last 48 hours, colder temperatures and new snow have been added to the snowpack. These colder temperatures are serving to harden the near surface snow and the new snow is bonding well to it. However, isolated pockets of slab to a foot in depth could be human triggered today on steep wind loaded slopes. Avalanches are unlikely at lower elevations where most slopes are devoid of snow and little snow has been added. If significant sun and warming occur today, wet loose and wet slab avalanches are likely and could involve the new surface snow as well as deeper old snow.
