In sintesi

The avalanche danger rating is MODERATE today on the Skyline.

Human triggered avalanches are possible today in a wide variety of terrain.

We've had a number of windy storms back to back without much time for the snowpack to settle and stabilize. Give it a day or so before getting onto the bigger, steeper slopes.

    We've had a few storms over the last week where the wind has blown the snow around and created slabs and drifts that are scattered about. These storms have happened fairly rapidly and the snowpack hasn't had much time to stabilize and adjust. The newer layers of snow are somewhat unstable in some areas. Furthermore, a blanket of new snow is now camouflaging the wind drifts and wind slabs making it hard to recognize them. Bottom Line: conditions are not all that dangerous out there but there are booby traps scattered around. Before getting into the bigger more committing terrain, it's best to give the snowpack a day or two to settle, stabilize and adjust to the newer layers from the last week.

Snow and Weather

Current Conditions: The Skyline picked up anywhere from 4 to 7 inches of new snow. Upper Ferron Canyon appears to have done the best during the east flow on Wednesday. The wind speed is light and variable in direction. Temperatures climbed into the mid 20s on Wednesday and dropped into the mid teens overnight. Riding conditions are quite good in many areas.

Mountain Weather: There's some low level moisture in the air but hopefully the sun will poke through the clouds today. The wind will be light from the west and temperatures will get up to around 20˚F. A minor weather disturbance moves through Friday bringing the chance for snow without much accumulation expected. Saturday looks like partly cloudy skies.
