Avalanche danger
Highlights
Repeated melt-freeze cycles have created a mostly stable snowpack. At the highest elevations a couple inches of new snow that fell several days ago lies upon hard old snow crusts. Avalanches are unlikely below an elevation of 10,500 feet. Daily avalanche hazard bulletins will continue to be issued until April 19.
Avalanche Discussion
Areas of clouds and showers will continue to track northeast along the surface front as the center of the low pressure system moves from the Oregon Coast into Northern California. As the surface front pushes to the east, snow and rain shower activity will increase in Western Wyoming. On Monday skies will be mostly cloudy and temperatures will be a few degrees cooler than today. Snow showers are likely and new snow accumulations of two to four inches are possible. Skies are forecast to clear from the northwest late in the day.The general avalanche hazard is expected to be LOW below an elevation of 10,500 feet. Some potential exist for convective snow showers to produce localized areas of intense snowfall. Very steep slopes should be avoided during periods of sustained intense snowfall.
