Description
This is an insane Couloir in Kirkwood's surrounding backcountry that requires a lot of effort to get to and ski successfully.
Take Chair 6 (Cornice Express) and travel out of bounds to Thunder Mountain's summit.
Continue to travel west towards the next sub-peak.
You will find this monstrous line around here.
You must rappel to get in.
Ice axes, ice screws, ropes, are 100% necessary and a fall will certainly result in death.
The chute also holds snow very poorly due to its insane pitch that it maintains throughout.
Jump turns are 100% required and there may be a few sections that require you to simply climb down.
This is a gnarly line that only the best of the best should even think of attempting.
Ride with caution
