Slushman's Ravine South
Backcountry Skiing Route
Details
0.1 mi
0 ft
Low angle open meadow turns
Slushman's Ravine South is a great run on any day. It has a slight North aspect, so it doesn't get hit too hard by the sun. It can get choppy, but doesn't form real moguls. There is room to turn pretty much anywhere you want between small and medium sized trees. Skiing here on a powder day is a real treat. Hike up to the ridge from the top of the chair and head North. Walk about 100 yards, past the ropeline that separates the Shlushman's Face from Ravine South. Drop in and enjoy the easy turns. You will probably want to exit into Trolley Chute, but you could traverse back South to the Face, hit Stimulus Package, or the UnNamable Buttress. Trolley and traversing back to the Face are the easiest options. Written by Matthew Shortland
