Forecast for the Logan Area Mountains

HIGH: You should avoid travel in avalanche terrain today due to very dangerous avalanche conditions in the backcountry. Significant accumulations of heavy snow and drifting from continued very strong and sustained southwest and south winds will cause avalanches to be likely at upper and mid elevations. Soaking rain and warm temperatures are causing natural wet snow avalanches down lower. Slopes with buried persistent weak layers are being overloaded, increasing the chances for dangerous deep hard slab avalanches.
- Avoid and stay well clear of obvious or historic avalanche paths and run-out zones.
- Stay off and out from under steep slopes with wind drifted or rain-saturated snow.
