jordansahls Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Hey y'all! I've been racking my head trying to think of some ski options out around WA pass that involve steeper skiing. I've done most of the classics (Black peak, Silver star, SEWS couloir, Birthday tour, ect.) But I'm looking for something a little more interesting. Am I missing anything obvious? I know there's no shortage of terrain out there but I'm hoping that some of you grizzled veterans might have some suggestions? Quote
JasonG Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 You might want to look around the north side of Mt. Hardy and the South side of Graybeard. Quote
AlpineK Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 There is a steep line on the north side of Hardy and one on the north side of Tower Mountain. You can also traverse from Rainy Pass to the north facing side of Goode/Storm King. Quote
lunger Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 You might want to look around the north side of Mt. Hardy and the South side of Graybeard. Yes indeed, the N side of Hardy has both the NE couloir and the Open Fly couloir. Don't forget to plug the east face of Graybeard too! To this discussion I'd also add the NW face of Black. For something that's steep but not godawful steep, the S facing couloirs on Whistler make for fine skiing. Quote
jordansahls Posted May 27, 2016 Author Posted May 27, 2016 Thank you all for the suggestions! I knew I was forgetting some obvious options, totally forgot about Hardy and the north side routes. Also, the stuff along Kangaroo ridge looks like good fun. Quote
