being originally from the midwest and this is my first season out here in utah, im wondering how much consideration you guys put into the possibility of an avalanche? i was really excited to get out this coming tuesday and wednesday morning, but then somewhat started to wonder how smart it really is. also the area i plan on going in parleys is somewhat steep and i know the more significant grade you're on, the higher chance for avalanche...i plan on going out and feel like common sense should be able to mostly dictate whether walking to a certain area is smart or not,...just curious what you more seasoned hunters or hikers think?

If you hunt on the windward side of the hils you will be fine. The leeward side is a totally different story. The weather service has put up avalanch warnings allready and it wouldn't hurt to check with them before you head out. Good luck and be careful.
