Crossing Serac Fall | [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ] |
These broken pieces of seracs apparently came down from the west face of Colfax Peak. We crossed a field of this debris on our way to the summit of Mount Baker. Photographed at 8300 feet on the Coleman Glacier, April 15, 2007.

Hasn't voted | The amount of surface area these ice chunks covered was immense. It was neat to see because it made a familiar area new and interesting again. | | Posted Nov 12, 2008 9:43 am |

Voted 10/10 | I'd hate to have been standing there when that happened. Especially in the dark. | | Posted Nov 9, 2010 10:02 am |

Hasn't voted | No kidding. This was one of the largest debris fields I've ever seen in the mountains. Where I took this shot, I was at least a tenth of a mile downhill from where it all came off. | | Posted Nov 9, 2010 12:56 pm |
