Utah Avalanche Center

From 90 cms down to 10 cms, there are different layers, but overall it quickly gains strength from a 4F to 1F slab.

High Temp. Gradient at the top of the snowpack. Surface beginning to facet on shady aspects with cold temps and clear skies today. Basal facets gaining strength. This is an outlier snowpit where the HS is on the higher end compared to the rest of the range.

Shallow, layered snowpack. ECT - fracture initiated on 4th tap, propagated across whole column on 5th tap.

Snowpack rapidly becoming faceted with to 10 to 20 cms very loose and sugary

On slope above and east of pullout used by Beaver Backside skiers/boarders

NSF's at surface shouldn't be a problem unless high pressure continues. Facets at the ground have adjusted to the load of the slab on top. Obvious signs of instability are isolated. This area is covered in snowmobile and ski tracks and no avalanches. Unsure if some slopes avalanched during storms at T-giving and first part of Dec.
