This Zone is like Mini Golf. Great lines you can lap over and over again. I’ve accessed by snowmachine and also by skins. Love this place. Great tree skiing on 1st and 2nd ridge. Frenchy’s is a favorite Couloir. Great place to build a kicker. Steeps and mellow terrain are all fun. Cliff areas that are both small and fun, or huge and scary. Grab a breakfast burrito at D.O.G. west at Pass Gass, before you head out. Be considerate of other users and this place will stay awesome.
