Triftji 33 Map

On exiting the Triftji T-bar or Rote Nase cable car, this run is the main face, opposite the Sunnegga/Rothorn mountain. The convex slope is steep at the top, meaning amazing fresh powder turns if the snow allows. This is followed by an open, rolling section, with a couple of small cliffs/rocks half way down to jump off or avoind, depending on your preference. It is a very open mountain section which allows you to choose a variety of lines, all taking you down towards the Stockhorn button lift.
