Salt River and Wyoming Ranges
Avalanche danger
Highlights
The general avalanche hazard is LOW. Slopes lack sufficient snow coverage for avalanche activity below 9,000 feet. Above 9,000 feet, backcountry travelers could trigger isolated pockets of surface slab to a foot in depth in very steep, north facing starting zones that lie upon weak, old-snow surfaces.
Avalanche Discussion
( Discussion is generated from the previous day's afternoon forecast. )Some flurries could be seen Sunday night as the upper-level trough exits the region ahead of a transitory ridge of high pressure that builds in on Monday. Temperatures in the mountains are expected to dip into the teens before rising into the low 20s tomorrow. The valley should also experience overnight lows in the teens, and daytime highs near 30.The general avalanche hazard is expected to remain LOW. Backcountry travelers should avoid steep, upper-elevation, northerly aspects where isolated pockets of dense slab up to two feet in depth lie upon old, October snow.
