The report offers useful information on the location of the Box Elder Peak super couloir, providing topographic maps which show the route from the the town of Alpine to Box Elder Peak, and locations of the NW super couloir on the peak's north flank. Since the approach is very long, backcountry skiers are recommended to start at the Dry Creek trailhead to shorten the distance.
Readers will also find an overview of the Box Elder Peak super couloir, which is a difficult couloir access. This couloir requires 5,400 feet vertical climbing and over 6 miles of skinning on the approach. The report also states that the couloir can be accessed via Dry Creek summer hiking trails.
The Park City People report estimates the difficulty level of this ski descent to be of expert level, due to the high risk of falling off one of the many cliffs in the area, which may lead to injury or death.
The report features an extensive photo gallery documenting a full ski trip, as well as a short video.
The photo report is part of the media company’s efforts to document some of Utah’s most iconic adventure areas. The official Park City People website also features a wide range of other photo reports and articles on skiing, rock climbing and mountain biking.
