iain Posted March 21, 2010 Posted March 21, 2010 Trip: Broken Top - Various - circumnav, 9 o'clock Couloir Date: 3/19/2010 Trip Report: Billy and I had a smashing time covering some terrain on Broken Top. While the snowpack is lower than normal, there's still plenty out there high up. Can you tell where the wilderness boundary is? We first headed up the east ridge to ski a cool ramp on the east side. Looking down on Sparks Lake The east crater wall We skied north to the ridge between Broken Hand and BT, and skied a great chute down and over to the north side. Broken Hand, the backside of Tam McArthur Rim, and the Smith Rock parking lot Great skiing to be had here on the north side. Der nordwand Heading over to the north face and northwest ridge On the northwest ridge Heading for 9 o'clock Couloir Looking down into 9 o'clock. The snow conditions were pretty miserable in here, a little refrozen and chunky. The view across. The snow is much better in the sun! Exiting into the crater bowl below 9 o'clock couloir. Fun times!
