Comments
My group and I noticed a couple of spots with natural avalanche activity on the East side of the upper Oquirrh ridgeline. The first spot was below South Lowe Peak on an East aspect at about 9500 ft; this was the smaller of the two. The other spot was just North of Lowe Peak between Kelsey and White Pine peaks. This one was on an East aspect at about 8900 ft. The Kelsey one was larger and had sent a good amount of debris down a gully.
