Most terrain offers LOW danger and avalanche conditions are generally stable. But low danger doesn't mean no danger. It still may be possible to trigger an avalanche in areas of steeper more radical terrain. Always carry appropriate rescue gear practice safe travel techniques by only putting one person on a slope at a time.

Northwest winds overnight bumped up into the 15-20 mph range with gusts to 25. Today look for mostly sunny skies light WSW winds, and high temps near 30 degrees. In other words, a beautiful day in the mountains. A weak system will move into the area tonight bringing a chance of snow through Monday with 1"-3" possible. Another weak system will brush by to the north on Wednesday.

The most exciting thing going on with snow conditions may be the recent grooming done on the Hart's Draw road up to Monticello Lake. Otherwise, snow conditions are a mixed bag out there right now.
