Overview

A fun alternative to Chute The Moon or Turkey Chute, this couloir adds a little pucker factor with a sporty entrance, steeper skiing, and a narrower line that meets up with the bottom section of Chute the Moon.

Need to Know

You'll probably need to rappel or do an exposed downclimb to get into the top of this route.

Description

Approach via Twenty-Five Short and take the obvious ramp northeast of the entrance to Chute The Moon.
