Vail & Summit County

Avalanche

n the Pk 3 shot, you can see a little more than 1/2 way down the east ridge there’s a hint in the crown where it pulled around the ridge to the north. Too deep in shadows to see for sure, though. The North Barton Bowl slide is in the left-center of that pic. These are marked on the 10 Mile Range avy topo “atlas" I made for the Center quite a while back. The other pic is a little closer of the North Barton Bowl slide just above TL. For relationship, Pk 3 is behind the tree on the right. It was in the shadows so not very good. Obviously no chance to get a better one with light on it this morning. These areas are not frequent runners, but not surprising given this winter’s history so far and recent weather events.
