107 R.E. Johnson 1968 Journal Aug. 29. Anaconda-Pintler Wilderness, Montana - Storm Lake & vicinity Toward dark I headed up Kurt Pk. The meadow (Goat Flat) extends up to a low summit north of the peak. Beyond this the route to the peak becomes more difficult as the ridge is ragged with numerous low cliffs. This ridge is all that remains separating a cirque above Upper Seymour Lake & [illegible] another on Page Creek. The cirque on Page Creek (west side of ridge) is steep talus overlying strata which dips at the same angle as the slope. This makes walking trecherous. A group of Rosy Finches were heard down this slope but could not be approached quietly enough to allow collecting because of the small avalanches that start with each footstep. These birds flew toward the top of the peak & I encountered them again there a little later but it was after sunset & again close approach was not possible. A spontaneous rock avalanche started on the slope near the top of the peak & continued for 10 minutes. This was the largest avalanche I'd ever witnessed & would have brought certain death & burial to anyone who was in its path. I returned crosscountry to Goat Flats, the trail, pass & Storm Lake all after dark. Camped at storm lake that night. Added notes: saw a Prairie Falcon over Kurt Pk before dusk. Hoary Marmots were common along the ridge west of Mt. Tiny.
