From the back side of the summit, I looked down the broad, gentle snowfield of the southeast face. Snow reached up to within a couple hundred feet of the summit, extending continuously down to the park road visible in the valley below. This south side route would be a fine easy ski route, with only 2000 vertical feet and much gentler slopes than the Northeast Face.
