Description

If Catherine's area is closed, you can not access from Alta.
Great quick shots available after a 15 minute sidestep out of Alta's Catherine's Area. And if you don't have skins, you can ski it a bit short and boot back up to Tuscarora saddle and ski back into Alta. Or continue hiking up the ridge for another lap!
