Comments
I came into the valley around 5 and noticed several avalanche paths filled in on the East Slope of the central Wellsvilles. Amy said she could see a big crown in Old Logway canyon and several smaller craowns in other canyons, but she didn't get any pictures. In the 5 o'clock shadows of the evening, it looked like avy debris in North Shumway, North Fork of Hells, and a couple in Old Logway. Most of them looked like they ran 1/2 to 2/3 full travel (1500 to 2000 vert).
