When the Shoulder traverse opens after a powder day, you can expect to see quite a few 'freeriders' heading toward the Bad News Cliffs for some air time. Enjoy the show or partake yourself! Just watch out for bomb holes and other skiers! Not recommended when the snow is old and cut up.

Medium Exposure (E2)
As well as the slope itself, there are some obstacles (such as rock outcrops) which could aggravate injury.
