Terrain Park Map

Head up towards Lake Haiyaha from Dream Lake. The trail will bring you through the trees up into a clearing. DON'T DROP THIS FIRST PART, unless you're actually a professional. Fifty-foot cliffs abound. Keep going until you reach the first sort of gully that descends off east. This is where you drop in. There's a nice rock to drop off of right up top, and is a good indicator for where to start skiing.

Description

Make sure to follow the base of the cliffs on skier's left, or else you'll get cliffed out at the bottom of the run. It does take some conscious effort to keep traversing.
