Highlights
Perfect pitch, and lots of skiing await in this bowl. It is generally reserved for spring skiing, as any avalanche would release on to the highway putting others at risk.
Ascent
Follow the standard Glory bootpack on the north side of the Teton Pass parking lot.
Descent
From the summit ski the main easterly facing bowl. Usually skiers will exit to the south or north ridge to exit and not ski all the way through the bottom gully.
Access/Permits
Parking is an issue on top of the pass so try to hitch hike or pick up others.
