Freeride Skiing Difficult
This is a popular freeride skiing route which is generally considered to be difficult. It's extremely remote, it features medium exposure (e2) and is typically done between January and March. From a low point of 2.5 km to the maximum altitude of 2.8 km, the route covers 941 m, 0 vertical metres of ascent and 307 vertical metres of descent.
This run is a slightly more challenging alternative to Forestdale Bowl as there's some rock exposure at towards the top and middle of the bowl. It doesn't hold snow nearly as well however and should generally not be done over Forestdale Bowl unless the snow quality is superb.
