Overview

Low-angle skiing in one of the most beautiful settings you'll ever find.

Description

Use the Sugar Bowls Approach.

This is the first glade you'll come upon. Ski as far down as you like, put skins back on, skin to the top, repeat as much as you like. FYI that the angle continues to mellow as you descend, so once you slow down it may be in your best interest to start skinning back up for optimal laps.
