| Brendan in Seagull Chute |
So it looks like a real-life ski tour is on tap for this weekend. In the mean time, here’s your weekly
edition of Throwback Thursday:
When I was living in Alta during the winter of 2009-2010, I skied every day (except for
four). Despite the frequency, sometimes it was hard to escape the patterns.
There were only so many tours to do before or after work that didn’t involve a
butt-crack-of-dawn start or a late finish. By March, my buddy Brendan and I
were looking for something new. It was then that we heard about Seagull Chute, off of Tuscarora.
It was funny to me that I had walked by Seagull Chute close to a dozen times without ever knowing it was there. The standard route up Patsy Marley starts from Catherine’s Pass, ascends Tuscarora from the West side and then North to the Top of Mt. Wolverine. Seagull Chute is on the East side of Tuscarora, unviewable from Alta.
