Forecast for the Ogden Area Mountains
Saturday, January 27, 2018
A scary MODERATE danger exists in the mid and upper elevation west to north to easterly facing slopes. Human triggered avalanches 1-3'+ deep remain possible in this terrain. Evaluate snow and terrain carefully. The good news is that one doesn't need steep west to north to east facing slopes to enjoy world class powder. Keep the slope angles low; watch for overhead hazard. Shallow wind drifts and point release sluffs are also possible in the steeper terrain today.
If the winds pick up earlier than expected, the danger for wind drifts will rise accordingly.
