Most year its mandatory air out into a field of trees but last year there was a chute on lookers right that you could ski out. Make sure your car is parked in the chair 2 lot for a quick get away.

    heres a good photo of it

    when it's dumping, and visibility goes to pot, or I do, not sure, the whole area along rogers through oh shit aka the comeback cliffs and on up to the highyote cliffs above dry creek get pretty hard to spot a rope ducking fool......

    Steep gullies at A-basin.
    Can be done legally but rarely is because of easier illegal access from pali.

    Cutting into the catskiing at Targhee is good for freshies, but not exactly "hard core" or "sick." It is amazing what those catskiers waste!

    Since the ski patrol at Snowbasin likes to take their sweet time getting anything open, I find myself poaching lower Demoisy, Sisters, and No Name every storm because they won't be open until the next day.

    Anything on Tram face @ Squaw gets my vote. Although tram chute was way easier than I thought it would be. But KKs to the looker's left has gotta be one of the gnarliest lines in the world.

    My favorite, though, is anything to the skier's right of the legal CBC area at Blackcomb. And all the PC areas off Whistler's peak chair look like $, although I haven't done those.

    Locally, Bermuda triangle/ Hourglass at Crested Butte. I've been lucky enough to ski this when they do the comp finals there, and it's one of my favorite areas anywhere. Last year, a patroller was nice enough to tell me he was doing sweep and he probably wouldn't notice if I was skiing there while he was sweeping

    under the lift at Silverton.

    I haven't been there when it was open. The only time I've heard of it being schralped resulted in a medivac to grand junction.

    DUDE - POACHING ROCKS MAN.

    I just say any run that is currently closed and covered with pow-pow is ideal for poaching.

    The Knuckles on northface is a pretty awesome poach if the pow under the cliffs hasn't been tracked out/ripped out.
    Our world is full of surrender at the first sign of adversity, do not give up when the challenge meets you, meet the challenge. Through perseverance comes the rewards, the rewards that make life so enjoyable.

    Seize the day, trusting little in the future.

    if you want something, go after it. if you want to screw someone over, look DEEP in your heart and realize Karma is a bitch

    In the regional Sneffels/Sol Vista complex, rhymes with "Evan Misters"... or the other that sounds like "Funnel Pace"

    Main drain and drainage in red lodge were sick today, all downhill, measured 5 feet of pow this morning, we had the only tracks(they're closed)

    Top 3

    1. Alta 0
    2. Extreme Bowl
    3. Gnar Gnar Coulior


    theres also some cool chutes in bernies bowl off of the traverse but i think they may normally get opened so i dont know if its really poaching

After that, fear has no power, and fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free." -Jim Morrison
