East Rim Chutes

(aka "Chicken Fingers" or "Chicken Chutes")

Clicking on the photos enlarges them. Photos are taken as you come down the hill. They have been taken over several years, so conditions shown will vary depending on what was happening the day the particular photo was taken. Photos looking back up the hill will be described as such.

Overview

Rated: not marked on map, but definitely
Type of trail: Steep chutes in a cliff area
Looking down the Ant Hill, off to the right on the ridge of East Rim, a cat track can be seen. The lower third of the Ant Hill should be straightlined because the track initially has an upward pitch. Ski along the ridge and go to The Nose. The chutes are off to your left.

The big rocks in this picture are part of Chicken Fingers, i.e., the chutes through them.

That's right, Sibby doesn't ski that stuff, I just look at it.
