A bit later in the afternoon, (Tuesday, 2-16-16) a fisherman witnessed another slide from in the Logan River!
He posted on Instagram: " Pretty scary moment while I was in the river today. An avalanche crashed down into the river just in front of me maybe only 50 yards up river. It scared the crap out of me! "
