Forecast for the Logan Area Mountains
Sunday, December 11, 2016
Significant accumulations of heavy new snow, consistent and strong westerly winds, and widespread areas with preexisting weak snow, created very dangerous conditions and a HIGH avalanche danger at upper elevations. Avoid travel in backcountry avalanche terrain, and stay clear of and out from under steep slopes and obvious or historic avalanche paths.
- Very shallow early season snow cover exists in the backcountry, and hitting rocks is still a serious concern.
- You don't want to take a ride even in a small avalanche, as you could easily be injured with the shallow snow hardly covering up the rocks and dead-fall in avalanche runout zones.
