Some fun chutes.
In the winter, the best & most daring tree skiers will love this line. There are a myriad of cliffs and rocks to drop, including 2 large ones (the last one is a MTB drop and has a conspicuous sign ahead of it). Some pushing will be needed, but this line will show you some of the very best tough tree skiing on this mountain. Double-diamond difficulty in the winter.
