Details
1.77 mi

One of the most popular hardwood glades in The Notch
Angel Food is a wide hardwood glade that sees a lot of traffic. This wide swath of woods is usually the first place locals go on a powder day. From the top of the gondola, ski down Chin Clip. After the first third of the trail, look for a sign to your left that reads “not patrolled”. This is your entry point. Traverse out along a narrow path until you see a bench in the woods, pass this and look for a wooden sign that reads Angel Food. Angel Food begins with a tight chute that quickly opens to widely spaced hardwoods, perfect for swinging long powder turns. As you make your way down, look for a traverse to skiers right, if you continue fall line, you will end up on the Notch Road. If you follow the traverse, you gain a long, low angle ridge that drops you off over by where they keep the grooming machines, either way, make your way back to the parking lot and walk to the gondola Written by Ryan Delena
