This was taken from the top of the cone looking north. Runs drop from the peak seen on the ski-line into the Lake Desolation drainage, but they are steep and much more avalanche-prone than PP3.

“A wider but obvious chute off Toledo Peak's east face that is steeper than it looks from afar.”

Description

Approach from Cardiff pass if you want a bit of exposed scrambling or via the saddle between Toledo and Flagstaff peak.

This chute starts pretty steep, directly off the summit of Toledo Peak, down the east facing couloir that gradually gets less steep as it opens up into the apron. It's followed by casual riding all the way to the road.

There are great views of Toledo Chute from Alta Ski Area.
