This morning I got up at 6:30AM, gulped down my Oatmeal with coffee and headed out to the Little Cottonwood to rip a few Tele-turns. The day progressed as follows:
- Up the Supreme Lift and short hike up to the Sunset pick (hike on skis)
- Ski Sunset Pick and climb back up (ski and skins)
- Ski Wolverine bowl twice (once on each side of the Cirque)
- Climb back up for each descend (ski and skins)
- Lunch
- Climb Rocky Point (hike on skis)
- Ski down
- Climb back up (ski and skins)
And the crowning jewel of the day – booting up the Wolverine and putting the first track on Granny’s Couloir in the Cirque! That’s right, we put the first track on the Wolverine Cirque’s Chute! Yes, it’s the least technical of Cirque's Couloirs, but it was my first and it hasn’t been skied since the last snowstorm. The first picture is the Cirque and the second has Granny's Chute marked with a red line.
