Best Hiking Window

Monday offers the safest relative window as winds gradually subside under building high pressure and skies clear fully, but temperatures will remain below zero all day. An early Monday morning start, allowing completion well before winds begin increasing again Monday night, represents the least dangerous opportunity. Tuesday brings increasing winds, clouds, and eventual snow — avoid Tuesday. If conditions feel untenable at the trailhead Monday, do not proceed; the danger level throughout this pattern remains extreme.

Trail: Carter-Moriah Trail

Conditions: Snow - Packed Powder/Loose Granular, Snow/Ice - Frozen Granular, Snow - Wet/Sticky

“Warm, but blustery day. I opted for snowshoes car to car, but I'd say the majority of people were in spikes or bare booting. Still not sure why you would choose not to wear snow shoes in that kind of snow, but that's just me. Smarter not harder kids. Trail is in good shape, but the snow was starting to ball on my snow shoes on the way down. Given the temps tomorrow this likely won't be an issue for long. Lots of people and several dogs out today.”

Trail: Carter-Moriah Trail

Conditions: Snow/Ice - Frozen Granular, Snow - Wet/Sticky

“Trail is well packed. My snowshoes took a ride. I saw a mix of snowshoes and spikes, with everyone doing well. Snow started to get sticky towards the afternoon, so snowshoes might help even things out if the people coming down end up having issues with warmer conditions.”

Trail: Carter-Moriah Trail

Conditions: Snow - Packed Powder/Loose Granular, Snow/Ice - Frozen Granular, Snow - Drifts

“Snowshoes from start to finish, they are still needed, especially above Surprise. It would be a tough hike without them, the trails are broken out but very unconsolidated. Shoutout to the only other couple on the trails, they came from New York and brought their snowshoes!”
