Uneva Peak
Uneva Peak can be accessed from Vail Pass and offers a number of skiable areas. Also known as The Claw, Uneva's Southwest face is steep and prone to avalanche. It shouldn't be skied on days where slide risk is present. Its Southwest angle also gives it a lot of exposure to the sun. Uneva's South Bowl, sometimes known as 100 Turns of Fun, is reasonably low angled and for the most part has good spacing in the trees. It's steep enough to post avalanche danger but it's the least threatened of the choices on Uneva. Past that to the South, the South Ridge has mellow trees and meadows that face Southwest. Uneva's East Face is steep and dangerous, with an array of choices heading South down the ridge and a hike back up to exit.
