Stoke’s take
No new snow has fallen in the past 48 hours, none is forecast, and the base is 0 in, so there is little snow on the ground yet. It's 35.5°F with summit wind at 5.8 mph and visibility at 10 mi. Plan around the best window, dress in layers for the 20-minute drive, and read the official Utah Avalanche Center forecast first.
What’s happening

- Snowbasin eyes Nov. 27 opening, uses cold week for snowmaking
Snowbasin, near the Ogden-area backcountry, said it will use this week's colder temperatures to build on weekend snow. No Ogden-specific snow totals were published.
