Description
Ski descents that begin on summits are the exception, not the rule, in the Southern Picket Range. Between two cliffs, a narrow ridge enlightens those that try with views far down into Mcmillan Creek and Lake Azure. The crux of the route begins when you transition from the summit ridge to the face. Once past, you quickly reach a col where you received your first outstanding views of the Northern Picket Range. From that point on, you continue down gentler slopes.
