I did the standard Kootenai Point tour on February 12 with Leah and Ryan. We skied the Gold couloir, then climbed to the top of the Exit Bowl, which was taken to the creek and out via the Kootenai Creek trail. Everyone seemed pleased with the day, even after some pretty significant de-tuning of skis on the rocky and undulating trail. The Gold couloir is one of the cleaner couloirs in the Bitterroot, and skis really well. The tour climbed around 6,000 vertical feet and took us a casual 9.5 hours car to car. See Ski
Route Descriptions page for more details.

The bottom of the Exit bowl got a little rowdy. |
