Salt River and Wyoming Ranges

The snowpack is mostly stable. Today’s sunshine may soften snow surfaces on steep sunlit aspects. Monitor conditions for increasing wet snow avalanche hazards during the warmest portion of the day and watch out for unstable snow on isolated terrain features. Even small slides can be dangerous in terrain with consequences.

( Discussion is generated from the previous day's afternoon forecast. )Skies will be partly cloudy on Monday with a chance of scattered snow showers in the Togwotee Pass area. Temperatures will drop into the teens overnight and rise into the 20’s and 30's during the day. Winds will be from the northeast to northwest at 5 to 15 miles per hour.The general avalanche hazard is expected to be low. At the highest elevations isolated pockets of wind slab are a potential risk to humans who venture into extreme terrain like steep couloirs, chutes and cliff areas. These small slabs are likely to be less than a foot in depth and could knock a person over and carry them down very steep terrain features. Tomorrow’s sunshine will soften snow surfaces on steep sunlit aspects. Monitor conditions for increasing wet snow avalanche hazards during the warmest portion of the day.
