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.

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.
