The toughest of The Lower Fingers; still not too difficult
Freeride Skiing Difficult
This is a popular freeride skiing route which is generally considered to be difficult. It's very remote, it features medium exposure (e2) and is typically done between December and April. From a low point of 2.3 km to the maximum altitude of 2.5 km, the route covers 467 m, 0 vertical metres of ascent and 157 vertical metres of descent.
This Lower Finger does get narrow and steep at some points, but is overall not too difficult and can be done by a very good advanced skier! It definitely borders on double black diamond difficult, but is overall a challenging single black diamond.
