General Comments

The Provo area once again came unglued today, Wednesday the 29th. Heavy snowfall added over 4 inches of water since this morning!

Slide Canyon avalanched naturally and came within 50 feet of highway 189 in Provo Canyon. No other details are available but most likely a class 4 avalanche.
