Description
On a powder day, the air is energised with hoots bellowing out to the quad chair as a frenzied mob of kids and adults alike carve, drop, jump and bounce the many sections.
For kids, it provides the perfect natural terrain to develop their off-piste skills while darting between natural bowls and hits. For adults, it's all about regression to grommet-hood and unleashing the inner kid.
It's very special to Le Bent, a place where the spirit of froth lives. Sebastian, son of Le Bent co-founder Anthony, rests here. Now an angel of froth, he rides the zephyr from the main range, blowing in stoke and pow for all to enjoy, hooting in the powder days and summer dirt surfing from his magical home away from home. The circle of froth.
Difficulty
Moderate
Slopes become slightly steeper at around 25-30 degrees.
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
Close to help in case of emergency.
