Crosscut

Type: Backcountry or Sidecountry

A nice glade that is easily overlooked.

The skier left of this zone is getting into the 30* slope range.

The entry to this glade is a bit hidden but easy to get to after skinning up to the ridge. The zone is about 20 acres with about 500' of vert. Seemed like this shoulder collected a fair amount of wind blown snow. Requires a 1/4 mile level skin to get back to the hut. I recommend setting your exit skin track by contouring east-southeast from the hut to where the slope rolls over steeply into the lower reach of the cirque. Do this when you get to the hut so when you ski this zone you don't go to far down.
