One of Tupper’s best “big couloir” zones—and also one of the most consistently active avalanche corridors with real implications for the highway. It’s a longer approach with a few key decision points, and the upper section can turn into steep, icy cruxing when coverage is thin. Cornices at the col show up often and can dictate how (or if) you enter.
