The bottom of the "Tour de Don" ski lifts are the point of entrance for this line- this first part is easy going through trees. As soon this area is passed you get access into a steeper part. If in doubt, stay close to the trees! The line is just below 2000 meters and a good amount of snow is usually present, as is a lot of sun. As a result, there is always avalanche danger here!! After the steep part, aim to get back onto the black slope "Barbossine". The bottom of the line becomes more flat and speed kept will help to reach the piste. Make sure you check the weather before doing this line - it would be a bad place to be in the wrong conditions!
Difficulty
Severe
Steep skiing at 38-45 degrees. This requires very good technique and the risk of falling has serious consequences.
Medium Exposure (E2)
As well as the slope itself, there are some obstacles (such as rock outcrops) which could aggravate injury.
Remoteness
