Wasatch BC Conditions 12/29

| December 29, 2013

Wow.  Do we need more snow. The past week, and the forecast for the upcoming week have been bone dry, which makes for some tough turning. All of the great little pockets have been hammered, and some of the more popular BC area are starting to get moguls. This isn’t so bad in itself, except that this is the third year in a row that this has happened and the lower elevations just aren’t filling in.  The steep upper elevations don’t have much snow either, but at least they have considerable avalanche danger.

Hmmm.  Dammit.  Deja vu all over again.  On the bright side, the cold nights and sunny days have been breaking down some of the various surface crusts.
