Description

Towards the point where the Williams Lake Alternate route rejoins the Williams Lake Trail, head west and follow the route through the openings in the trees to a bench beneath The Pyramid's northeast slopes. Cross the open snowfield beneath some cliffs and contour up some steep, forested slopes until you reach the bottom of Teddy's Chute. Climb the chute to a flat picnic area beneath the What's Mine Couloir.
