Second Pitch with 2k still to ski - Kristin

Red Pk. - South Face

March 27, 2022

Gore Range - CO

Red Pk. - 13,189' 

South Face


After Clover Mtn. we headed north from the Sawatch to the Gore range. Deciding to stick to southern aspects as they skied so well the previous day, and it allowed us to avoid the PWL that still plagued the colder sides of the compass. And we nailed it, we were rewarded with perfect corn skiing right off the summit. Yet again the Gore amazes!

Southwest Couloir


With this season’s challenging snowpack thanks to the Jan/Feb facet cycle, we decided to narrow our focus down to western aspects. Nailed this one:) The zone delivered an amazing day in the alpine with perfect snow conditions and unreal weather!
