Gold Cord Mountain
I don't think this needs much more introduction than saying that randonee bindings are one of the greater inventions known to man, and to stay tuned for more if I can get up there again before leaving early next week.

A recent blizzard hit the area hard and most of the rock faces were plastered with snow |
 |
Avalanche danger was extremely high; most of the major faces had already released and here I'm standing by the remnants of a small slide. |
 |
Looking back down at the mine buildings. In the upper right you can even see more slide runouts and our route up right past them. |

Microdot and the Rae Wallace Chutes as seen from above the cross. |

Not the most impressive action shot ever, but hey, the scenery is just gorgeous. |
