A.M.F Gully Map

To access this run: Take the Cirque Poma until you get to the fifth tower. Let go after passing the fifth tower and traverse to the skier's right. You can also access this run from the top of the Poma, but getting off at the fifth tower makes it easier and faster to find the trail. This gully is a great step up from A.M.F and should be attempted before trying runs such as Gowdy's and Possible. It's quite narrow at the top but it opens up rather quickly as it joins back up with A.M.F as soon as you clear the cliff-band.
