Salt River and Wyoming Ranges

Although the snowpack is mostly stable a chance may remain for a person to trigger an isolated pocket of wind slab in steep avalanche stating zones at the highest elevations. These slabs will most likely be found, above 9,000 feet, on terrain features with wind drifted snow and are likely to be less than a foot in depth. Due to the early season conditions and thin snowpack, even a small slide could have high consequences.

( Discussion is generated from the previous day's afternoon forecast. )A high-pressure ridge will continue to dominate the weather. Expect skies to be clear. Lower elevations temperatures will only rise into the 20’s in the afternoon while the higher elevations reach the 30’s and 40’s. Winds will remain light.The snowpack is mostly stable. The general avalanche hazard is low. A chance may remain for a person to trigger an isolated pocket of wind slab less than a foot in depth in avalanche stating zones at the higher elevations.
