Potosi Peak's North Couloir | [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ] |
Potosi Peak and its impressive North Couloir as seen from the ridge between Potosi and "Coffeepot". Access to the bottom of the couloir posed too much of an avalanche threat for our taste so we decided to save it for another day. "Coffeepot" made a nice consolation prize. San Juan Mountains, Colorado. May 2009.

Hasn't voted | Thanks Marc, its one of my favorite places in Colorado and I keep going back. In fact, I've still got my eye on that couloir and hope to go back in a few weeks when things have settled down a little more :) | | Posted May 12, 2009 10:41 pm |

Hasn't voted | It really shows how crumbly Potosi is will all of the debris stains in the snow. It's one of the fastest eroding mountains I've seen or been on. | | Posted Jul 20, 2009 12:27 am |

Hasn't voted | Hey Sarah, long time since we last spoke, or climbed, looks like you've been busy. Nice work. I was gonna send you an invite to Ruby Basin 4th of July weekend with myself and Mike Rodenak, but it looks like you've already conquered that region.
Anyways, I borrowed this shot for the N.Couloir route page, hope you don't mind. It makes describing the route a lot easier when you get a sense of its relation to Teakettle and the rest of Yankee Boy Basin. Nice shot, I need to climb that guy. | | Posted Jun 10, 2010 5:14 pm |
