Description

It's a mellow fire road approach, then a short trail to the base of the ski run.

The face is nice to ski, but there's also a nice area just on top of the ridge that runs up the slope that skis well.

Looking from near the top, down the ridge run. Not Lick Creek proper.

Snowpack looked good. Extended column test didn’t break during testing. When we pried the shovel in and pulled it broke off about 3 feet down.
