Comments
I could see a few recent natural wet avalanches this afternoon that I didn't see yesterday. The east side of the Wellsville Range had strips of wet avalanche activity that looked dripped off the ridgeline like melting candlewax.
These in Hell Canyon were similar in size to several of the others; much of the debris was under large cornices and some of the southeast-facing slopes.
