This is the furthest line you can ski in Cornice Bowl. It does take a good bit of extra effort to reach this but it's well worth it. The snow quality here is superb and the run maintains a moderately steep pitch throughout! You'll most likely have to drop a cornice to enter the line but it shouldn't be too large. Certainly worth the additional hike required to reach this run!
