Abajos

The avalanche danger is generally LOW and mostly stable snow conditions exist. Low danger doesn't mean no danger and it may still be possible to trigger an isolated wind drift in steep, upper elevation, wind affected terrain. Even a small avalanche triggered in the wrong area can have devastating consequences.

The UAC's Avy Awareness Auction is currently underway with tons of great gear, jewelry, artwork and experiences available. Visit the auction page here to help support the UAC's spring avalanche awareness and outreach efforts.

A new version of the UAC IOS application is now available on the Apple App Store. This version fixes many of the issues that occur when running IOS 13.

Weather: Overnight, south winds continued to blow in the moderate to strong range with temps staying above freezing at the lower elevations. A weak storm system will move through the region today bringing clouds, breezy SW winds, and trace amounts of snow. High temps will be in the mid 30's. For the upcoming week, another weak system will slip by to the north sometime on Tuesday followed by the potential for a stronger system to affect the southern part of the state on Friday.

Snowpack: Spring-like conditions are in effect with melt-freeze crusts on sun exposed slopes that become moist during the day. Some of these slopes may be supportable in the morning with pre-corn like conditions. Northerly facing, wind exposed terrain is scoured and crusted, while some soft, powdery snow can still be found on sheltered aspects.
