Skiers left in The Cirque, travel towards the dip. There is a cliff drop that varies from 6-12 feet dependent on the snowpack. There is usually a significant amount of horizontal to clear, so the actual air time/drop is larger. Land straight and keep straight! The chute landing is steep (45 degrees). attempting to break in the chute will not end well. There is also a large rock usually buried in snow skiers' left of the runout. Wait for good visibility to do this feature.
