Steve coming back from an exposed ledge after finding it did not lead anywhere. It is best to stay close to the top of the ridge for the S-N Bells Traverse to avoid getting lost.

The infamous Maroon Bells and their reflection.
Me on the crux (5.2-5.3ish) headwall of the traverse. Lots of exposure, but easy to solo. I brought a rope and belayed a partner since the exposure factor freaked him out, (which was totally justified!)

S-N Traverse. Good rock, but make sure to test holds since some block are loose. Really fun. Pictured here are Steve Mannhard and I.
On the S-N traverse.
Me and Steve on the upper 1/3 of the Bell Cord. Snow gets soft quick here, so make sure you get on the couloir early!
