Sometime around 2pm today the lower elevations in the Provo and American Fork mountains experienced a light rain event. Shortly after it
Another sizable slide in AF further up the road near Tibble Fork Reservoir. This is the Tibble Towers Chute and it ran 1000' taking out some small trees and branches before ending in the creek.
At the same time, similar slides were happening in Provo Canyon. This is a small path near Frasier Park called Snow Slide Jr. It ended at the Provo River bike path. A bit further down canyon near the popular ice climbing areas a couple more slides like this came out of The Fang ice climb and also the next one to the west. Luckily, no one was on these climbs at the time.
