Togwotee Pass

The general avalanche hazard is LOW. Warming temperatures will increase the chance for human triggered surface slabs or naturally releasing wet-loose slides on steep, sunlit slopes.

( Discussion is generated from the previous day's afternoon forecast. )High pressure over the area will permit warming temperatures and dry conditions. Mountain temperatures will drop to the mid 20s overnight then warm to the upper 40s Monday. Ridge top winds will be southwesterly at 10 miles per hour.Pockets of surface slab to a foot in depth could be user triggered at upper elevations. Areas under ridge crests and cornices that have remained dry should be treated as suspect. The remainder of snowpack at all elevations consists of thick melt-freeze crusts and is mostly stable. The avalanche danger is expected to be LOW.
