A large face within Mount Washington ski boundary. One of the least difficult ways down in the Outback. It is a nice mostly open face with some small trees. The easiest way to get to the run is by going down Mangroves and then traversing across to the left until you get to a groomed snowmobile road. Once you are able to see McKay lake to your right, turn that way and go down the face to the chairlift.
Difficulty
Difficult
Serious gradient of 30-38 degrees where a real risk of slipping exists.
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.
