Jason, If you saw the waste from the mine at the start of the peak, you wouldn't be too concerned about the two golf balls. The impact from people driving their four wheel drive gas guzzling vehicles to the base, then climbing this thing is way more destructive to the environment then the two golf balls here.
is that the top of conundrum couloir in the background with snow? i climbed and skied castle over a year ago (descent down the backside to conundrum hs) and wish we could have skied that couloir.
and this certainly isnt a recent pic, the elks still have soooo much snow from this season!
