I shot this video of an attempted ascent of an obscure couloir on the south side of Otis Peak in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, USA. After we got hit by an avalanche we pulled the plug on the climb and headed home. May 6, 2007.

  • @PimpTasticBling Evaluating the safety of any snowpack starts many days before you actually plan to head out. Here's what I see in this video that are red flags: A plan that involves climbing a very sun exposed, south facing snow couloir!! Hello? Solar convection? All you is a bad layer of near surface facets for that heat snow on top to have a perfect sliding layer. And it appears a late start with relatively clear, sunny. skies.
