“A sustained steep descent to a bowl containing a small tairn.”

Need to Know
Description
While most choose to climb back out of the bowl to the ridge and return via the ascent rout to Loveland Pass, there are a few other options to get back to civilization. One option is to continue skiing past the tairn and into the Kearney Creek drainage. Follow this to the road. Another option is skiing to the Bakersville Trailhead.
