Freeride Skiing Severe
Bird's Nest is a very challenging run that requires some additional hiking to get to. The run itself has a very narrow choke-entrance and funnels into a few chutes created by rocks and trees that often require mandatory straightlining. Definitely one of the most challenging in the area, however it's totally worth hiking up here to get a stellar view of Kirkwood's Backside area!
Severe
Steep skiing at 38-45 degrees. This requires very good technique and the risk of falling has serious consequences.
