The Wood River Valley is among the areas expected to see moderate snowfall through Wednesday, according to the Pocatello office of the National Weather Service.
The Sawtooth Avalanche Center has planned a class and field session that will instruct participants about snow, avalanches and traveling safely in and near avalanche terrain.
A 24-year-old man has been charged with felony aggravated assault along with several other charges after an early morning confrontation with Blaine County law enforcement on Sunday.
