You can only access this area by enlisting the cat services at the Baldface Lodge.

Description

From the cat drop-off on the road above, this is an open, clear-cut, intermediate slope. This can be a nice aspect for certain weather/stability days. Some terrain features (e.g., under-snow boulders) provide jump opportunities.
