never seen the area outside of the snow season, pretty trees
I've only ever seen caples lake when it was frozen
it was fun to see the magic carpets. They can be raised as the snow level goes higher
avanlache prevention gates and avalanche triggering devices when the road needs to be cleaned
nice to see the avalanche gates from so close
these trigger the slides for avalanche safety on Carson Spur
damn, I never hiked that far with my snowboard :)
getting closer to sentinel bowl/cornice lift
looks a bit rocky, probably not a big deal that I forgot to bring my snowboard
a sign frozen in time, left as is on the wretched day of March 14th when they closed
woohoo, I'm a lift operator now :)
never went down this way, but it was the way back to our path
