Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

This report from
Casper Star Tribune.
It's not clear from this report whether the avalanche was videoed or shot on a still camera, but it's expected that photos will appear shortly. Watch this space.
There are serious avalanche dangers in ski areas of California, Colorado and Utah at present, due to major snowstorms.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thanks, playdreamer.
What a piece of luck to have the camera handy - it's a monster of an avalanche. Lucky there wasn't much more than trees in its path and that he was clear of the end of it. It must have been scary to have been where he was located.

Probably not that much luck wrt to the camera. Bruce Tremper is well known for his photography and never goes anywhere without his camera.
