Salt River and Wyoming Ranges

The general avalanche hazard is CONSIDERABLE. DANGEROUS soft slabs up to three feet in depth have been formed by strong southwest winds and over three feet of new snow in the recent storm. These slabs lie on a weak snowpack of hard crusts and faceted snow and could be triggered on steep, wind loaded avalanche slopes. Many large slides have been released by travellers in the Tetons over the past few days and similar conditions exist in the Greys area. As the snowpack settles larger triggers, like multiple passes, may start slides.
