Freeride Skiing Difficult
From the top of Youla cable car station exit and head right to cross the big wind barrier at its left side. Ski down (pay attention for hidden rocks) then take the first couloir on your right. Head down, always keeping a bit right, pointing towards the Comba Moretta piste. After the steep part an easy traverse rightwards allow you to join the piste almost at its end. Take care to avoid the couloirs straight below this run that take you into the forbidden and dangerous area. Take care after heavy snowfall or strong wind, as avalanche risk can be high.
