Crevasse on Baker

Crevasse on Baker

Trying to climb Mt Baker during a whiteout, got off trail and had to cross this terrifying snow bridge. Thats my friend Jim, I'm behind the camera, and the last person in our group to cross it. (note: I was NOT the one that got us off trail...)

Nice Gaper!

Snow bridges are a rush but I am always glad to safely reach the other side.

Cheap thrills!

One need not buy tickets or stand in line for thrills in the mountains!
