Sorry Spud, didn't get your message in time. I'd love to go sometime, just not Sundays, gotta take the wife and kids to church. What's your schedule like this week? I don't really work in the winter so I can ride about any time. Any info. on the snow up Tony's though?

Watch conditions throughout the week, but avalanche conditions for the Logan range are still the highest in the state and are still at CONSIDERABLE.

Please check this closely as there has been LARGE avalanche activity up there.

Logan Avalanche Advisory

Forecaster: Toby Weed

BOTTOM LINE

The overall danger in the backcountry is still CONSIDERABLE (or level 3), which means that dangerous and potentially deadly avalanche conditions linger on many slopes in the region. You could trigger a very dangerous deep slab avalanche 3 to 6 feet deep, or deeper, and potentially quite wide on slopes with preexisting weak snow that haven't recently avalanched. Triggered wind or persistent slab avalanches are probable in some areas, particularly on shady and/or drifted slopes steeper than about 30 degrees. Wet avalanches are also possible in the heat of the day on sunny steep lower elevation slopes with moist or saturated surface snow.

Careful snowpack evaluation, cautious route-finding and conservative decision-making are essential for safe backcountry travel travel today.


RECENT ACTIVITY


There were several avalanche accidents in the Central Wasatch backcountry yesterday, with people taking long rides and sustaining serious injuries in large avalanche incidents. Current Conditions Page

Locally, riders report remote? triggering a large deep slab avalanche just east of upper Providence Canyon on Saturday. Luckily, the riders were clear of the slope when it released, and no one was caught. A good sized deep slab either naturally released or was remote triggered from a good distance midday yesterday just up canyon from the Temple Fork intersection in Logan Canyon. The avalanche at 6000' on a northeast facing slope was on an adjacent slope to the one that closed Logan Canyon Highway exactly two weeks ago. This one stopped in thick trees a few feet shy of the road.

I'm heading up there tomorrow. Not for a real hard ride though, my sister just got engaged and we're taking their engagment pictures of them on MY sled at the lake. I know, we're Rednecks.
