“A steep bowl with lots of options and lapping potential.”
— Jacob Winey
Overview
Need to Know
Description
The bowl faces north-east, so the mix of indirect sunlight and wind-loading makes for good snow. Also, it's very easy to lap by skinning back up the north-west facing chute to the skier's right at the bottom.
