Description
A steep open glade, False Summit starts just before the first Southback gate.
Access by hiking the Throne until you reach the first flat spot.
False Summit starts here.
A few small alpine firs dot the upper slope early season.
This slope quickly becomes less steep.
Watch for the cedar bench a third of the way down, which is steep and often rocky and might require mandatory air.
Veer to the right or left above the trees to avoid this area.
