A couple more avalanches to add to the list that Brett is cataloging in the Timpanogos area. This one is in the Grunge Couloir. You can just pick out crowns high in the Grunge under the upper cliff and also off to the right in the North Face of Timp.

Another shot of the most recent one in the UFO Bowls.

Brett Kobernick, one of the most innovative garage scientists I know testing out his latest. Ski Pole Penetrometer. Put your orders in soon, this is going to be a cool one.

It looks like this is what we're gonna have to ski for a while down in Provo till things settle out a bit. Maybe April?
