Overview

Hyalite Road is closed from approximately Apr. 15 to May 15.

Type: Backcountry or Sidecountry

Description [Suggest Changes]

This gorgeous powder field is short, but sweet. The perfect angle to be safe during moderate + avalanche conditions but still steep enough to get your stoke heightened.

Drop in. Transition. Skin up. Repeat. This section tracks out relatively quick on a pow day but there's usually something left to shred even later in the day.
