Difficult chutes at the top of Mount Washington with a great view! Accessed by going thru at the top of the Eagle Express chairlift. Then you take up a short bootpack up. At the top, you have two ways that you can go down. One is going to the left which has some cliffs and chutes and is the more difficult way down. Then it ends up on West basin. The other way is straight ahead by going next to the rope. This way is a little bit easier but you still have one section that has a tight chute in the trees. After that the run goes down towards the Boomerang Chair.
