Aside from loveland pass, its the only non-hiking backcountry of any merit in the area.
Yeah I have done Loveland Pass before and it was a lot of fun.

I sure hope you have your Ortovox, shovels, and shock cord though if your doing backcountry.

Dude seriously you should look into some peeps and at least some of the free avalanche training courses the mountains offer just so you know what to do. I thought I knew what was up until I took a couple avalanche safety courses and learned more than I thought.
