Salt River and Wyoming Ranges

Inverted conditions developed overnight with mountain temperatures starting out 10 to 15 degrees warmer than the valleys. Above 9,000 feet, skiers and riders might be able to trigger an isolated pocket of slab one to two feet deep in very steep, avalanche prone terrain that held snow from October. Mostly stable snow exists below 9,000 feet, and slab avalanches are unlikely. Shallow, wet loose sloughs might become possible in the afternoon on steep, southerly aspects if skies remain mostly clear throughout the day. Early season conditions exist in many areas, and normal caution is advised.

( Discussion is generated from the previous day's afternoon forecast. )On Sunday, expect clear skies overnight before cloud cover slowly increases in the afternoon. Expect inverted conditions to develop overnight with valley lows near freezing. As the day warms, temperatures will rise into the upper 20s at all elevations. Northwesterly ridgetop winds overnight will shift to the south during the day at 5 to 15 miles per hour.The general avalanche hazard is expected to be Low on Sunday. In very steep, avalanche prone terrain at the highest elevations, skiers and riders might be able to trigger an isolated pocket of slab one to two feet deep. Early season conditions exist in many areas, and normal caution is advised.
