Details of recent Wasatch avalanche accidents

Here in the Wasatch, we're dealing with a particularly tricky snowpack this season. Sunday brought an in-bounds avalanche in Little Cottonwood. There was also a size 2 avalanche along the Park City ridge line that left a young man in the hospital. The Utah Avalanche Center has posted their investigation and report from the PC ridge line avalanche on their website. You can check it out here. We can all learn from these kinds of events, I think it's worth a read and a look at the photos.
