...and more...

...this last Sunday I hiked up Belleview again with some folks, and this time summited.  The snow had melted amazingly fast in the interim.

Talus slope

Mount Avery and other peaks in the distance

One of the Maroon Bells is the freaky triangular peak in the back right; I wanna climb it...

Clouds and mountains as seen from the summit of Belleview, at 12,473ft.

The group

About to traverse under the dangerous cornice, in order to glissade down the bowl

The cornice

Going under the cornice; what looks like stars is the snow melting off the cornice and dripping down like a curtain of rain
