Avalanche Bowl is a steep, short run just to the east of
Chair One. It's somewhat exposed to the wind, and the
ground beneath it is fairly rocky, so it requires a reasonable amount of snow to get it open. When it is open, however, it's a great run. The best and
deepest snow is generally to the skier's left (west). Take care to look for rocks far skier's right if it's full open. It's a boulder field under the
far right side of A-bowl and it takes a fair bit of sticky snow to cover it up and not get blown off. I've gotten more than a few good powder turns
skier's right however - fear of rocks and the unknown
keeps it less skied.
From the bottom of Avalanche Bowl, you can go right into
Zoom (or keep going right to lower
Over The Rainbow), or left into
Avalanche Bowl (or keep going left to lower
Cat's Meow).
