Descending the couloir from Fancy Pass down to Fancy Lake was relatively simple. I had passed two backpackers going the opposite direction who said they had post-holed most of the way up the east side of Fancy Pass and recommended that I stay on the high side of the northeast-facing snow field here where the snow was firm. Their advice was goodthe snow was firm and I stepped and slid my way to below snow-line in about 30 minutes.
