Vasquez Cirque at Winter Park - West Headwall

Skiing the West Headwall in the Vasquez Cirque at Winter Park on a decent powder day. From the top of the Panoramic Lift, through the gate, and along the traverse out to the Cirque and then skiing back down to the Eagle Wind Chairlift.

I very much appreciate you showing the hike up

You’re welcome! That was definitely something I was always curious about before actually doing it. You can’t really tell from the trail map.

Looks awesome! I'm thinking on trying this out in when I visit in march. Do you have any advice for an advanced/intermediate first timer looking for the easiest and least steep way down?

[@pcullis]

Honestly I’d probably hit the main giant “West Headwall” your first time because everything else has rocks you need to at least be aware of. The runs are pretty clearly marked and the Headwall is pretty clear. That’s what I do first in this video.

Thanks! I need to get back out there!
