Ossepi Chute Map

Ossepi Chute starts as for Roost, in the tight glades off Polecat, at the split, take a right instead, traversing to a steep chute. Here you arrive at a view. Drop in and enjoy tight turns at a consistent pitch, with a few cruxes to negotiate. The hardest of these is a small drop with a committing landing. Ski out to low angle glades on the valley floor, and take the traverse back.
