Nice!

Would have thought they'd be doing something with the gondola on top of the pass too.

I would think you'd pretty much have to walk down a not insignificant amount of windswept rocky bullshit to get to anything skiable from the top of that thing most years. Though to be fair, I don't really know if the aspect skier's left of the top of that gondola holds snow or not...

Mostly NW if I'm not incorrect...

IIRC it's not steep.

**MotoBeak** · 09-23-2023, 10:49 AM

Nothing exciting back there. More space to spread people out is good though.

**cmsummit** · 09-24-2023, 09:10 AM

Yep, that terrain generally faces West and isn't steep. I was hoping that they might open No Name Chutes (off the map to the lower left) for hiking....that's some interesting (albeit short) terrain, but given the Proposed SUP boundary it doesn't appear that's in the cards.
