I noticed numerous wet slab avalanches and a couple higher deep slab releases, which occurred last weekend in the Lower part of Providence Canyon. Looking up from the quarry, I could see that first Waterfall Hollow off Big Baldy and many of the steep lower gullies and cliff bands had produced significant natural avalanches.
