Description

A fairly straightforward skin, the most popular in Turnagain Pass, and maybe all of Alaska.

Stop at treeline and ski off the north side of the ridge on low-visibility or high-avy-danger days. Or venture up into the alpine. This track stops at the top of "Tincan Common" bowl. Continue further to the more serious Hippie Bowl, Tincan Proper, Todds' Run, etc.
