Ski Touring Difficult
This is a climb of almost 3,000 feet that accesses one of the most iconic peaks in the Wasatch. Park at Our Lady of the Snow roughly 7 miles up Little Cottonwood Canyon. Head up to Cardiff Pass following the power lines. From the pass stay on the ridge and head W. This ridge rises up and then drops down again along some cornices, but stay on the ridge and continue along trending on the S side of the ridge when it's too rocky on the true ridge. You'll climb up again towards Little Superior. The trail usually turns to booting up the ridge at this point, and stays pretty true to the ridge. There may be some mild rock climbing involved.
Difficult
Serious gradient of 30-38 degrees where a real risk of slipping exists.
