A Special Avalanche Advisory continues for the mountains of Utah and SE Idaho, as record warm temperatures increase the likelihood of destructive wet snow avalanches. Avoid travel on and beneath steep slopes. Visit utahavalanchecenter.org for the full forecast and information.

Record-breaking warm temperatures will destabilize the snowpack across the state, increasing the avalanche danger. Wet avalanches could occur on all aspects and at all elevations. Avoid travel on and below steep slopes, including avalanche runout zones and terrain traps.

3 people have died in avalanche accidents in less than a week, with a 4th in the ICU. Get the forecast utahavalanchecenter.org/fore…

The UAC has issued an AVALANCHE WARNING. More info: utahavalanchecenter.org/fore…

Heavy snowfall and strong winds are increasing avalanche danger across the mountains of Northern, Central, and SW Utah, as well as SE Idaho. The UAC has issued an AVALANCHE WATCH for dangerous avalanche conditions utahavalanchecenter.org/fore…

MODERATE avalanche danger exists on all upper and mid elevation slopes where you’re likely to trigger wind slabs. As the day warms, expect the potential for wet loose slides to rise. For more info, check the forecast: utahavalanchecenter.org/fore…

Saturday January 10th, 2026: MODERATE avalanche danger exists on all upper and mid-elevation slopes where you’re likely to trigger sluffs (loose dry avalanches) and sensitive soft slabs of wind blown snow. A PWL still exists on W-N-E upper and mid elevs utahavalanchecenter.org/fore…

Sunday January 4th, 2026: The avalanche danger is MODERATE at upper and on W-N-SE facing slopes at mid-elevations above 9500’ where the wind continues to drift new snow into slabs 1-3’ deep. Deeper, destructive slides on a PWL are possible in steep, rocky, northerly slopes.

The avalanche danger is MODERATE on W-N-E facing slopes above 9500' where the wind has drifted new, dense snow into slabs. Smaller wind slabs may prove effective triggers for deeper, PWL slides. utahavalanchecenter.org/fore…

Sunday, December 14th, 2025: Are we experiencing fool’s spring this week, or did fool’s winter just get us last weekend? Either way, danger is MODERATE on high W-N-E slopes where you can trigger a slide 1-2’ deep on our buried PWL utahavalanchecenter.org/fore…

Friday, Dec 5th, 2025: While many slopes didn’t have much snow before this storm, danger will rise to CONSIDERABLE in high northerly terrain by the end of the day. Temps and snow levels will rise during a wet, warm, and windy storm throughout the day. utahavalanchecenter.org/fore…

December 3rd, 2025: Yesterday we started issuing daily hazard ratings. While most terrain is at LOW or NO danger (due to the lack of snow on the ground), areas of MODERATE avalanche danger exist on mostly shady (W-N-E) slopes above 9000’. youtu.be/G5OH-GRTYj0?si=qUeW…
