Advisory: Logan Area Mountains | Issued by Toby Weed for Sunday - February 28, 2016 - 7:00am |
---|
current conditions The Tony Grove Snotel at 8400' reports 24 degrees this morning, and there's an inch of new snow, with 72 inches of total snow now containing 95% of average water for the date. It's 19 degrees at the 9700' CSI Logan Peak weather station, showing 15 mph northwest winds. We've found good snow stability and a low avalanche danger this week, but drifting from yesterday's wind created pockets with heightened danger of wind slab avalanches at upper elevations in areas with soft transportable surface snow. |
recent activity
A natural loose wet avalanche occurred midday Friday (2-26-16) on a steep east facing slope in Steam Mill Canyon.
