“A steeper bowl with some great features that leads into a flat section though the trees.”

Description

Hot Dog Bowl is a great bowl up located Cameron Pass, especially for someone new to the area. This is a steep, long line that makes the relatively moderate ascent well worth it.

It has easy access from the Zimmerman Lake trailhead where you can follow the gully up and around the slope until it hit the bowl.

Expect spectacular views from the top especially of the Nokhu Crags!
