Forecast for the Logan Area Mountains
Wednesday, November 30, 2016
Heightened avalanche conditions exist on drifted slopes at upper elevations in the backcountry. Pockets with more dangerous deep slab potential might be found in drifted north facing terrain on steep slopes with underlying smooth ground and weak snow preexisting before Thanksgiving.
- Very shallow early season snow cover exists in the backcountry, and hitting rocks is still a serious concern.
- You don't want to take a ride even in a small avalanche, as you could easily be injured with the shallow snow hardly covering up the rocks and dead-fall in avalanche runout zones.
