Description

From the shoulder against Otis Peak, you drop down a short slope to a flat area. From there you can ski either the more mellow and wider chute to the left (shown in track) or you can ski the steeper, narrower chute on the right. From the bottom of the chute, it's a quick tour up to Lake Haiyaha to ski Mario's or Terrain Park.

Skied the west chute, it's filled in very nicely on the skier's right side. Dug a pit above the line and got ECT 17 failure at the ground facet layer.
