Nowcast -Morning skies are broken and temperatures are slightly warmer than yesterday, with trailheads reporting in the mid-20's and upper elevation stations reading around 15F°. Winds blow from the west 30MPH in the alpine zones keeping it frigid in the high country, with windchill in the negatives.

Forecast - Overcast and broken skies are joined by 20-30 MPH winds throughout the first part of the day, but look to back off this afternoon. Skies burn off heading into supper time, with a high of 35F° on the day at 9,500'.

Futurecast - Historically warm weather enters the region beginning tomorrow. Our snowpack will feel it's effects and will keep you in the loop with what that looks like in the coming days.

Travel Conditions - North and south side gates are open on HW150, plowed from the north to Whitney and from the south to Spring Canyon, and of course SR35 remains open over the pass. Solars are melted out up to 9,000' and many windward slopes are scoured and worked to the dirt. The best riding exists above 10,500' on polar slopes, and with a little work and some knowing where your going you will find it!

Looking into the Central Mountains and High Uintas, Chris Brown snapped this photo throughout his travels showing that it's very winter-esque still as you gain elevation into the core of the range. See more from his travels and awesome write-up found, here (via C.Brown).

On my way to the North Slope yesterday I ran into two of the Uinta's most-wanted Pro Observers. After a few hours of separately hunting some skiing and searching for some boondocking, we agreed that "It ain't that good out here, but it ain't that bad" and that it's always a treat to be out in the hills.
