Description

The bowl is very steep and has high sun exposure.

You enter it by dropping into the Sound face and traversing past the south face on the far right.

You can access the Sound of Music in 2 ways.

One is the steeper but shorter Homerun hike from the Sun Peak chair, and the other is the longer, flatter hike to Roscoe's off the Saddleback chair.

The Sound has high avalanche danger and is not commonly patrolled like in resort terrain.

Make sure to have your gear and a partner before skiing the Sound.

I also suggest checking out with patrol before skiing to make sure they write your name down and to make sure you are in the clear.
