John Justus and I hiked up to the Citadel (aka Snoopy) by Loveland Pass on Wednesday May 28, 2008. The hike to the peak was long (about 4.25 miles via snowshoe) and the final 900 feet or so were especially steep. The snow was soft from the sun but no too soft to make us nervous. The slope angle was about 45 degrees-making it really fun to drop into. There is still lots of snow so this hike will be fun for a few weeks longer.
Here's a clip of the last 2/3 of my run down South face of the slope.
