A gentle gradient and completely different to the skiing in all other directions, the eastern slopes are long and flat, which are best left for the run home to Charlotte's Pass. However the runs to the south east are gentle and drop around 300 metres over a couple of kilometres towards Club Lake Creek. This area holds the snow well and will corn up nicely in spring, providing a nice gentle return home.
Difficulty
Easy
Wide gentle slopes at around 20 degrees or less.
Low Exposure (E1)
Exposure is limited to that of the slope itself. Getting hurt is still likely if the slope is steep and/or the snow is hard.
Remoteness
Little chance of being seen or helped in case of an accident.
