Description

There's a high thrill factor on this one. Access via the Center Gulley Ascent or the Chute. This obvious line (when the snow pack is good) runs between Center Gulley South and The Chute. It runs over some large cliff bands and picks down through large boulders as it nears the ravine floor. Great caution is needed to avoid damage to your gear and your person.
