- During the last week of January 2024 I set out to ski 12 big lines from the 4 summits of Little Cottonwood's White Pine Cirque (Red Top, Thunder Mountain, White Baldy, and Red Baldy). This is a 4-part series covering the highlights of this project.
On my fourth trip into White Pine (and the last day of high pressure) I managed to hit all of the remaining lines on my list. By this point the sun, wind, and other skiers had taken their toll on the snow surface, and conditions were less rippable than on previous days, but still nothing to sniff at. Red Baldy is not the highest peak in the White Pine Cirque, but it has the biggest, best, and most diverse ski lines. If the theme of this project is making the most of every trip to the mountains, following the sun and skiing multiple aspects, Red Baldy truly captures this spirit, with quality descents on its North, South, East, and West faces. I skied the Icefall, NW Face, NE Couloir, and an unnamed line that I'm referring to here as the North Couloir.
