SnowBrains | Post Tag for BackcountryBackcountry

Sometimes the crux of a line is just figuring out what the line is. Such is the nature of “The Uber Tour”, a line that is listed in The Fifty Classic Ski Descents of North America but nobody seems to know what exactly it is. Piecing together the description in the book as best as possible, The FIFTY sets out on a link up of the N Face of Mt. Rogers and the absolutely classic NE Face of Swiss Peak. Facing the challenges of timing the Winter Permit openings in Glacier National Park with the right conditions, along with a long, complex and big day to link up two steep lines in the Roger’s Pass vicinity, the crew go for what something they would definitely call an uber of a tour. Co-Starring Greg Hill and Emma Patterson.
