Follow ridge down to viewer's right (to south) to get to Powerline Pass. That is a suggested route to summit.

Forward and left over the near saddle (to northeast) is Ship Lake.


Image is looking east, across the main Glen Alps Valley, from Peak Two, just east of Flattop Peak.

Telephoto lens or zoom in.

Re: view context guesses

Thanks for the comment. You're correct that this is a tele from Peak 2, looking across the Powerline Valley and the Avalanche-Wedge col to the main body of Avalanche Peak beyond. Context and ascent routes are discussed on the main peak page which is a parent of this picture. It is found here:
