Description
The entrance to Nitro Cliff is a large, eastern aspect convexity that is often wind loaded.
Avalanche danger here is significant.
Getting caught in an avalanche would mean being taken over a large cliff and through rocks.
Make sure you are aware of the weather, avalanche conditions, and your ability before committing to a route like Nitro Cliff.
This has a large mandatory air in the neighborhood of 40+ feet.
Because this route requires mandatory air, it is recommended that you wait for the snow conditions to be deep AND stable to consider attempting it.
