Points saillants

The avalanche danger remains CONSIDERABLE on the Manti Skyline.

Stay off of slopes steeper than about 30˚ that face west, north and east.

It is still possible to trigger an avalanche from a distance so continue to avoid being below steep slopes.

    There were no avalanches reported from Monday although not many folks were out in the mountains. The weak sugary faceted snow is still lurking. This Persistent Weak Layer is still very active right now. Steep slopes that face west, north and east should be avoided. I anticipate that this buried weak snow will continue to be an issue through the next series of storms. It will be less sensitive but still capable of producing large and dangerous avalanches.

Snow and Weather

Current Conditions

Temperatures made it into the upper 30s and low 40s on Monday. Northwest wind remained light. It bumped up in speed slightly overnight along the highest peaks. Temperatures remained mild overnight in the low 30s. Last week's storm snow is settling and is not near as deep as it was a few days ago.

Mountain Weather

We have nice weather in store for the next few days. Sun and ridgetop temperatures around 40˚F or more. Wind will remain pretty light. The next series of storms start moving through late Friday. Overall, the pattern looks pretty active so I'd say that we are in for some more snow over the next few weeks.
