Grau Roig far West Map

An area with great and easy access through the forest with a unique alpine synergy. The run is accessible from the far side of Pastora or from Port (before dropping back to Pas de la Casa) and offers great safe alpine terrain through a scattered forest with great fun terrain such as little steep slopes and rolling areas. It's an amazing run which needs a shuttle or a pick up unless you walk all the way back to the Grau Roig bottom station. It might be a good run to close the day with epic light conditions and then taking advantage of somebody leaving and picking you up on your way back home.
