“A cruiser ski line right out the door of the Wendy Thompson Hut. ”

— Ben Stone
Driving DirectionsGPX File
Type: Backcountry or Sidecountry

Description

This is a beautiful open slope that just yearns to be ripped up by those visiting the Wendy Thompson Hut. From the col between Pk 2300 and the sub-peak that almost looks like a face (called "tenzing"). From the top, drop in, enjoying the run until near the bottom where it might be a good idea to start angling skier's left to avoid a longer skin than necessary. If you're out for another run, there are some pillows to the skier's right that can be linked up with at the bottom.

Good lighting to show the roll over on the slope. Make sure to start your ski traverse left before going over the edge.
