Starting at the Sunrise Visitor Center head northwest on the Sourdough Ridge Trail. Branching off right on the Huckleberry Creek Trail keep following the ridge west until there is a small ridge separating Mount Fremont Southern Basin and Sourdough Ridge Basin. Descend down loosely following the Huckleberry Creek trail but stop just before the lower roller descends into the valley.

Wanting to follow the snowpack we did a traverse around the Eastern Ridge of Mount Fremont gaining elevation until arriving just above a small tarn. From here we rode down to the lake before bootpacking Southwest up to the ridge and for the next few hours took lap after lap within the basin. Each time we would climb up and find another aspect to ride back to the bootpack and just repeat.

Once it was time to leave we hiked a little ways skiers right of the lakes drainage and were able to ride quite a ways into the valley. Soon enough we caught up with the Huckleberry Creek Trail where we loosely retraced our approach back up to Sourdough Ridge and back down to the visitor Center.

While this is far from the wildest ski tour around it is good to know that this place has good snow once The Sunrise road opens.
