Comments
The furthest south UFO Bowl had a large avalanche crown visible from Heber- Hard to estimate size from a long distance away. The middle UFO Bowl looked like it had previously avalached based on what appears to be a large debris pile in the lower portion of the track. I was unable to see or photograph a crown in the middle UFO bowl. The debris looked to have been buried by some fresh snow and leads me to believe that it avalanched naturally during the storm.
