From a low point of 2.5 km to the maximum altitude of 2.7 km, the route covers 6.3 km, 552 vertical metres of ascent and 774 vertical metres of descent.
Description
This gullies are gladed and wide open, short yet very enjoyable. They're a nice contrast to the steeper and equally short Deadwood Tree Chutes. As shown in the map, there can be a cornice that forms due to wind at the top, however it's never unreasonably sized!
Difficulty
Moderate
Slopes become slightly steeper at around 25-30 degrees.
Low Exposure (E1)
Exposure is limited to that of the slope itself. Getting hurt is still likely if the slope is steep and/or the snow is hard.
Remoteness
In the high mountains or remote conditions, all individuals must be completely autonomous in every situation.
