| OAC4309 - Rescuers working with dogs and probes to find the second avalanche victim in Mineral Fork 12-12-04. |
| OAC4302 - Wind can deposit snow ten times more rapidly than snow falling out of the sky making wind loading the most important weather factor to consider in determining avalanche danger. Here the wind erodes from the windward side and deposits on the lee side. Ph |
| OAC4295 - Jason West walks along the fracture line of an avalanche incident in Silver Fork 11-14-06 in which one person was completely buried in an avalanche they triggered and Jason dug out by his partners in time to save his life. Here he returned to the scene t |

| OAC4303 - Surface hoar crystals. They grow on the snow surface during clear calm and humid conditions. They are a dangerous weak layer that can produce avalanches once they are buried by additional snow. |
| OAC4315 - A nice glide avalanche off one of the Porter Fork cabin roofs. The very warm temperatrues cause melt water to percolate through the snowpack and lubricate up the interface between the snow and the impermiable roof. This happens in the backcountry too es |
| OAC4328 - A massive avalanche in the Argenta slidepath in Big Cottonwood Canyon Utah. The avalanche was intentionally triggered by helicopter-thrown explosives. the avalanche has not crossed the road in 50 years and it wiped out dozens of acres of 50-year old tre |

| OAC4316 - A huge natural wet-slab avalanche released late in the afternoon of March 13 2007 on the northwest face of Gobblers Knob in the upper left of the photo. The wet debris gouged out a 40 foot deep trough and filled it with dense wet avalanche debris. The d |
| OAC4320 - The avalanche was composed of 2 feet of dense wind-blown snow on top of an extremely weak and fragile layer of depth hoar. Its like puting a brick on top of a pile of potato chips. These kinds of avalanches are very tricky to mess around with because as |
| OAC4321 - The avalanche broke out 2-3 feet deep and nearly 200 yards wide as far as we could tell. We skied into the distance along the ridge to see how far the fracture propagated but visibility was so bad we could not tell how wide it broke out. In a brief clea |
| OAC4323 - This is a very large natural avalanche that occurred on 2-27-07 when strong wind combined with dense snow fell. The avalanche is in South Monitor on the Park City ridgeline. It broke about a half mile wide taking out the entire bowl and the fracture ave |
| OAC4322 - Skier-triggered avalanche in East Monitor along the Park City ridgeline Wasatch Range Utah |
| OAC4314 - As is often the case with large wet avalanches it gouged down to the dirt and created its own bobsled run. Wet avalanches are usually very destructive events. |
