Corbet's Couloir

With closing day (4/3) fast approaching, one of the few things I had left to accomplish before leaving town was Corbet's.

 
Usually it's a ten to thirty foot drop but with the 538" of snow to date and the manicuring from ski patrol, successfully skiing Corbet's requires only a side step down the goat path into the couloir, and entering off a five foot jump over the rock at the bottom, and a hard right then left.

Due to the lack of sun and abundance of wind, skiing the 50 degree slope down the soft snow in Corbet's was pretty mellow. I only took a quick break up at the top to examine the cave dedicated to Doug Coombs, a Jackson Hole legend. Pretty awesome.

The only thing left for me to see on the way down was a more up close look at S and S Couloir. That's an in bounds drop open only for those who gain permission from ski patrol.

I'm all set hucking that far into a couloir, but you never know. It's dumping right now and there's snow in the extended forecast, still. That's been the story of this winter.
