Beginning with a gentle 4-mile approach rising 1800 feet, the trail winds through a thick forest with only two switchbacks. Once in the basin, the ski terrain offers something for everyone. From low-angled gladed meadows to broad moderate north-facing alpine bowls surrounded by non-technical summits sprinkled with black-diamond chutes. At the end of the day, all you need to remember is to follow the path of water and you’ll eventually find your way back to camp.
