According to Kim Brown, this glade was cut by a well known local named Skip in 1985. Despite discouragement that this was too obvious, he was inspired by this particular patch of woods. He named originally named this line “Skippy’s Dream”. However, the name was changed when a local named Roger, who Roger’s Chute is named for, dropped in. During his run, he accidentally skied over a nesting Partridge. Not wanting to be wasteful, he took it home, cooked it into a stew, and ate it. More than likely, this “partridge” was probably a Spruce Grouse, but the name endured, and is now referred to by those “in the know” as The Partridge. Ski along Haychute and drop in to the woods between Liftline and Goat. Ski tight conifers glades, continuing to trend right, until you can pop out on middle National.
