The Ogden area mountains have a mostly LOW avalanche danger, but a low danger does not mean no danger. The cornices along the high ridge lines are very large, and could break beneath the weight of a person. Avoid any new small wind drifts that form as the southwesterly winds increase. While pockets of faceted snow exist near the ground on steep, upper elevations slopes, none have produced avalanches in the Ogden area mountains yet. Still, if you travel in steep terrain, only expose one person at a time, especially on steep, shady slopes.
