Likke Schloss Map

Likke Schloss is an incredible couloir with 900m of vertical drop into the Valsesia. The high mountain environment makes this journey incredible. The couloir ends into the Malfatta Valley, where powder can often be found! This line is really hard to locate and dangerous since it's often exposed to the wind. Very large wind affected spots can form at the very entrance. Extreme carefulness is required when entering this line! Extreme skiers only
