Guaranteed creek crossing via the Solitude cross-country trails "easy loop". once across creek / through the meadow you can find your route up through the old-growth forest and rolling bench like terrain.
Once up to the major first bench you have access to a variety of smaller pillows, poppers, tree skiing, and large cliffy terrain.
