You can see most of this terrain while riding the Orient Express lift on your right hand side. Get off the lift and head towards the gate to Siberia Bowl. Take a hard right at the rope line and follow it as far as you can. Instead of following the rope to the end, break off right towards the lift and ski whatever line you please, tons of terrain and fresh snow to be had here.
