Comments
A little sunshine allowed for some visibility this morning, and I was able to get some better views of recent natural avalanche activity in the Wellsville Range. I spied this nice fresh looking crown on the Wellsville Cone. Since a nice fresh coating of white covered the other nearby natural activity, this avalanche stood out as more recent, most likely it occurred overnight during the windy squall that came through in the evening.
