Description

The Marjorie Bowl is approximately a 1 hour hike from the summit of Loveland Pass. This bowl is just beyond the ski area boundary of Arapahoe Basin and there are frequent avalanche slides in this area. The ridge that makes up the looker's right hand side of this bowl is also the backside of the Tree Chutes at the Abasin ski area.
