current conditions The Logan Zone has been left high and dry, while the mountains to our south have been blessed by small storms and little tastes of powder. Snow conditions are quite varied across the zone, with a brittle, translucent rain-crust on the snow surface at upper elevations near the Idaho State Line, springlike supportable snow on sunny slopes, wind whipped snow in exposed terrain, and a few pockets of soft powder-like conditions still to be found in the trees.

recent activity No avalanches were reported recently in the Logan Zone.

weather A series of weather disturbances will impact much of Utah through at least Tuesday. After a short break late Tuesday night through early Wednesday, another round of precipitation will expand across the state late Wednesday through Thursday.
