A place to share something you hope to tick off. From fun meadow skips to big lines.

This is a little peak that stands alone in a heavy snow area near @Ron I'd like to ski this year. Just a little 800'-1000' shot that used to be serviced by a rope tow. Main skiing is on the east side of the peak. The yellow/green shading is 14-27 degrees, then the typical CalTopo shading takes over.

I know that little peak very well. I will tell you, don't go when there is too much snow... meadows are way too flat and upper face can pop pretty easily. Better with just a few inches of fresh or corn.

I figured it would require some particular timing.

Have always wanted to ski that spot. I thought maybe Bluebird would set up there. I can't quite make out where parking is. Good luck.

Bohemia's been on my bucket list for a 10 years now. Tucks was, but I'm not hiking that far for turns anymore.

well, I just read of some backcountry options off of Porkies ski area, in the UP of Michigan. That seems worth checking out.
