Bartlett Mountain Summit Area

This is what is left of the summit of Bartlett Mountain. Extensive mining have dropped the summit of this peak from 13555 to 13400! This cavity used to be a mountain! This is potentially one of Colorado's most dangerous peaks as a result, the mining has left the remaining jagged towers on the ridge loose and crumbling. The final tower is 4th class, exposed, and falls apart in your hands if you are not careful. NOTE: the true summit is not visible in this photo, I will post an image of that as well for beta. Image taken November 4, 2007. It may not look like this for long...
