Comments
This natural avalanche probably occurred during a widespread natural avalanche cycle overnight 1-17/18, but I'm not sure of the exact timing...
Here is another avalanche observation from 1-20 showing the crown of a large avalanche that probably occurred around the same time, a little way down the Providence Peak ridge.... https://utahavalanchecenter.org/avalanche/82669
