Description

Riding this line at the far west side of Wildy Bowl requires dropping onto a steep slope that runs onto a cliff then then turning onto and across an off-fall line drift, into a chute descending a steep ledge towards a narrow choke in the middle of the cliff. It's a high consequence line.
