Comments
East face of Providence Peak. Crown about 50 feet below the cornice line. About 300' wide. Viewed from Logan Peak. Did not see how far the avalanche ran. Date unknown but at least a week old as there was some new snow just below the crown and a few hundred feet lower things looked filled back in. One of numerous avalanches in the area-- including DB, Exit, Goal Post, Logan Peak West Diamond in Logan Dry Canyon -- in a recent cycle that probably ran 1 to 2 weeks ago.
