Mad Women's Map

Mad Women's is not for the majority of skiers. It is an insane line that connects the tops of Sometimes with Madman's. It should only be attempted in very high snow, and probably with health insurance. Get yourself to the top of Sometimes, right where the chute starts to the North, head right, down the fall line to the East. You will be in a steep rock and pecker tree area that has two main guts in it. Straightline or hack your way down being aware that there will probably be a 10-20ft air out the bottom. You will want to hit this line on a powder day before Madman's sees much if any traffic.
