“An ultra-fun chute that tends to hold great snow even if the surrounding area is wind-scoured and crappy. ”

Description

The skier's left line of "Y Chute" is a fairly steep, quick shot that is super-lappable. Take care, as the entrance is a bit convex and the line has a potential to slide.

Making my way down what I refer to as Gaffney's ramp (since it comes in under Gaffney's Playground) You can see someone's bomb hole from someone hucking Gaffneys previously.
