In mid June we still had plenty of snow for climbing some incredible couloirs around Crested Butte. Dan Escalnate and Alan Bernholtz took a group of 4 up some amazing peaks. We climbed 50-70 degrees snow routes. The conditions were perfect and the weather was awesome. This is the year to climb in the Elks. The ascents and descents can be easier when they are covered in snow. It was  a great way to start off the summer.
