Several crowns were visible from Beaver Mountain this morning from the past storm cycle. This one was looking south towards cornice ridge / tony grove area. We are unsure when this and many other naturals occurred, late Sunday 12-3 or overnight...?

Matt B also saw the natural activity from Beaver and sent these pictures.
