Highlights

The avalanche danger is LOW.

Sluffing is possible in steep northerly terrain, and pockets of wind slabs exist in isolated areas. Risk is inherent in mountain travel, and getting caught in a small avalanche in radical terrain could lead to disaster.

Special Announcement

Thanks to the generous support of our local resorts and Ski Utah, discount lift tickets are now available. Support the UAC while you ski at the resorts this season. Tickets are available here.
