Windblown, Icy: Looks good but Snow pack is low and tons of exposed rocks. Wind has blown all the snow away. Don't go if you value your gear. History

Description

Skin up the road to the St. Vrain Mountain trailhead. Follow the summer trail with the creek on your left until you get into a noticeable bowl - you'll know it when you're there. Head south for some northeast facing trees.This area is generally low angle but there are some isolated steeper areas and some convex rollovers to watch out for. You'll also use the trail as your descent. Be careful of rocks and other trail users.
