Highlights

Another safe alternative off Glory. A nice traverse leads to mellow slopes on the west side of Glory and leads you into the Coal Creek drainage.

Ascent

From the top of Teton Pass follow the standard Glory Boot Pack directly across from the parking lot.

Descent

Head Northwest from the summit and Skirt the top of Little Tuckerman's, go past unskiabowl and head west so you are on the backside of the great white hump. Head north just a little bit more till you see a good fall-line. Ski down and follow the Coal Creek Drainage out to the Coal Creek parking lot. You will need to shuttle or hitch a ride back to your car.

Access/Permits

The top of the pass is always crowded so park at the coal creek lot and hitch up.
