Forecast for the Logan Area Mountains
Sunday, April 7, 2013
Heightened avalanche conditions exist in the backcountry, and there is a MODERATE (level 2) danger of wind slab avalanches in drifted terrain. Additional new snow and intensifying southwest winds will cause an increasing danger today. You could trigger 1 to 2-foot-deep wind slabs and/or cornice falls in drifted upper elevation terrain. Wet avalanches are possible in some areas during midday warmth. Evaluate the snow and terrain carefully, avoid steep drifted terrain and melt softened saturated snow, and continue to follow safe travel protocols.
