    Second Notch at abay isn’t even close to the steepest run in North America. Highlands bowl claims the steepest in bounds run in Colorado. And just outside abay is the locally known “shit for brains” couloir, steeper than highlands bowl. Also abay now has the beavers with a few short chutes much steeper and gnarlier than anything on the wall. Please don’t attempt anything in the beavers area without avy gear, training, and a partner.
    Props to skiing a crazy line on the wall that has an anchored rope to enter with. It can be quite terrifying in low snow conditions.
