mattp Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 the slight double fall line Is that shorthand for "it is not really a couloir and if you fall you may tumble over a cliff rather than sliding down a gully"? Quote
Gaucho Argentino Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 Hei, Dan... So, the line is that diagonal finger of snow crossing the peak in Scurlock's photo? And you went down to where the tips of your skies are pointing? If "yes" to both of that, Dude that's simply... awesome... Quote
danhelmstadter Posted March 24, 2013 Author Posted March 24, 2013 Thanks for all of your comments. Crazedmaniac, yeah I think my experience up there has affected my dreams and goals for the better. Cool to hear a little about your times up on that wall! Matt, there was danger of going over the east face above the couloir, but not in it because of it's sunken nature. Gaucho, thanks, yeah that's what I skied. Quote
