A joy in good conditions
The trees around Pyramid are great fun, providing you stay safe; ride in pairs at least, with a helmet and a plan. Look out for tree stumps and undergrowth in early season; a foot of powder can obscure a lot. Best to wait until it’s really filled in. In the later season. Taking a line from Pyramid to Lower Powderhorn helps ensure you’ve got a definite run out. Do watch out for clumps of bushes that grow there, which create bubbles of snow that you can sink down into, which sucks.
