| Sunday, all the climbers met at the climbing school at 4:45 AM. Everyone found a ride and we drove to the park. We left the Bear Lake Trail head at 6 AM and climbed the Dragontail Couloir on Flattop Mountain, 12,324 feet. It was a great 3 mile hike each way and a snow climb of close to 2,000 feet at a 40 degree angle. These pictures of the Flattop climb are courtesy of my climbing partners, John, Suzy & Frank. I had a great time and was fortunate that the other members of our rope team were fun people, good climbers and well conditioned. |
