“Straight couloir with mandatory cliff.”

— Powder Project Staff

Driving Directions GPX File

Type: Backcountry or Sidecountry

There is a mandatory cliff partway through this line. It's about 20 feet in height. If you don't want to send it, bring a rope and harness.

Need to Know

Either duck the ropes at the summit of Rendezvous or go just down the cat track and leave at the first gate. Bring skins to slide back up over Ten Sleep.

Description

Expect a wide and narrowing couloir with a cliff part of the way down.
