These are great videos. Are there any other lines you can include? For example the ivory tower straight line next to death chute. Please continue these!
Thanks! I was hoping people would pitch in and name more features, not sure I can edit this video. But will definitely keep a list and work on adding more lines and feature names for version 2.
Awesome! Will add that too, I am a local and I never knew most of these names or features! Thanks for pitching in. I am planning on doing some more of these videos for Baldy and Silver Fox. Since most the features are named from the freeride comps. Mineral basin and Little Cloud would be fun too, man Snowbird has so much stacked terrain. Even Gadzoom has a ton of stuff!
@@benoveson yeah the amphitheater / broom closet area and silver fox would be super helpful. Also maybe get serious, not much out there on how to access each door. That it does, I know it decently but not great. Ever need Mammoth line names im your guy
Most of the names and designations of these runs dates back to the days before fat, shaped, uber rockered skies with little to no camber. It took precision skiing to brave these runs back in the day. These days anyone on a pair of 185 116 Big Chickee Boy skis with 30/30% rocker can jump into these runs.
Lol, was testing out a way of grading cliffs similar to runs. But I guess I didn't release that a green is a circle. I gave up on this method in my updated video. But you can't edit the video portion after you post in youtube, which sucks for guides. So now Im putting names and info in the description so I can make corrections along the way. Thanks for the feedback!
I'm hoping to do a similar video for different snow levels. Unfortunately, the good snow days usually have bad visibility, so took the opportunity on a sunny day to film. Thanks for your feedback.

Love this format. I'm going to Snowbird in a week for the first time and this is fantastic. Beats any map.

Cool. There is a straight line through grey zone called the diagonal too. That’s all I got, not a local just go there 7 days a year

Quick ledgend system poll. Please like the system you prefer and I will adapt in future videos.
Use triple blacks to represent mandatory straight lines or drops?
Use different symbols like a lightening bolt (Stright line), Cliff (Mandatory Drop), or Skull (No fall zone)?
Man, that is some demanding summit terrain....stay safe.

0:09 green sqaure? What's next? Black circle? Blue diamond?

The area labeled Middle Cirque at 0:25 is actually Lower Cirque.
Awesome, thanks for the correction. I'm working on a version 2 and will update that.
Super helpful
Getting to the cirque nowadays will destroy the bottom of your gear. Too many skidders and snow pushers on the cirque traverse
You’re missing squirrel chute!
Thanks Jacob! Will add to version 2. Version two is getting a ton more updates!
Terrible conditions to be showing the cirque. You should actually wait till there’s some snow.
