Scott on the hike from Snowbird to Baldy - Mineral Basin is on our right.
In front of the white cloud on the peak
(at the top left of the photo) the third faint image to the right is a lone hiker.
Scott atop 11,068 ft. Mt. Baldy, which separates Snowbird from Alta
Mt. Superior is in the background
Ron dropping into Baldy Main Chute at Alta at the end of May, 2002
You can't see the momentum,

Shushing through the snow balls on Baldy shoulder
- Increasing sloughs might mean we are

We started where the cornice is
visible more than 1000 feet above me.
It's fun but getting a little scary
Two turns below this Ron sets off a large wet slide
