Forecast for the Logan Area Mountains
Monday, December 29, 2014
Heightened avalanche conditions exist and there's a MODERATE (level 2) danger in many areas. You still might trigger a dangerous and destructive persistent slab avalanche on a steep upper or mid-elevation slope facing the northern half of the compass. Substantial drifting of light powder yesterday created dangerous wind slab conditions and a CONSIDERABLE (level 3) danger in terrain exposed to wind, mainly at upper elevations.
- Careful snowpack evaluation, cautious route finding, and conservative decision-making will be essential for safe backcountry travel.
- Avoid fresh drifts and wind deposited snow on steep slopes.
- Strictly follow safe travel protocols. Only expose one member of your party at a time, and keep a good eye on each other.
