Tetons

At the mid and upper elevations soft slabs up to two feet in depth exist on steep avalanche prone slopes. These slabs could be triggered by the weight of a single person. Avalanches are unlikely at the lower elevations.

The northern edge of the southern storm system will continue to impact the region. Light snowfall is expected to continue overnight and into Thursday morning. Accumulations of several inches are possible especially in the Salt River and Wyoming Ranges. On Thursday temperatures will be in the 20s. Winds are forecast to be five to 10 miles per hour and veer from the south towards the west. The general avalanche hazard is expected to be MODERATE. Soft surface slabs up to two feet deep exist and could be triggered by the weight of a single person. Likely areas of concern are steep slopes, known avalanche paths, cliff areas, terrain traps, cornices and the steep walls of cirques and basins.
