Nosedive Glades

Cut in 1934 for by Charlie Lord and Perry Merrill’s CCC crew. These were among the first cut glades on the mountain, these days they remain one of the most popular zones, with wide conifers and many different aisles to ski. For the most part they are spacious and low angle but you can find tighter spots to either side. Eventually you cross Glades Return, marking the end of the “marked” section of these woods, but skiers can continue to enjoy the woods by crossing this trail, following tighter woods down to Cliff Trail. Ski out to Nosedive or continue down Drifter for a long run in the woods, beside the famous Nosedive.
