Snowdon Peak

Snowdon Peak

Snowdon Peak (on the right), the smaller peak on the right is North Snowdon. A nice view of west buttress and "Naked Lady Couloir", which is the deep cleft (empty of snow late in the summer).

Cleft Palette

I suppose "couloir" sounds better than "chute" in this case...

Re: Cleft Palette

It is just a popular snow climb late spring/early summer, featured in Colorado's Snow climbs book. If I would shoot the photo from the north, there would be some remains of the snow inside it.
It does look like a chute on this photo...
