Forecast for the Logan Area Mountains
Saturday, February 4, 2017
There is a CONSIDERABLE danger of wind slab avalanches at upper elevations and of wet avalanches at low elevations. Triggered avalanches are likely and naturals possible in the backcountry today. Drifting from sustained and increasing southwest wind is creating dangerous wind slab avalanche conditions in exposed upper elevation terrain. Rain on already saturated snow at low elevations is causing dangerous wet avalanche conditions on low elevation slopes. Carefully evaluate the snow, be conservative in decision making and route finding, avoid and stay out from under steep drifted slopes and those with saturated snow.
