... continued

Going up the road was way too much D-tour and the whole thing took me like 30 minutes, so I decided to go with the original plan of going up the side of the hill.

I found a narrow trail going up parallel to the main slope (maybe just a hiking trail and was not a skiing trail) so I hiked up it with skies off.

It took me to the top of the advanced area. Looking at T bar building from below.

I found a nice line where lower T bar used to run.

It was a nice line with no rocks to hit.

At the bottom, I saw a guy walking up with Telemark skies. He said he is also trying the hill out for the first time. He climbed the same way I climbed. and I followed slowly being already tired from the last two ascends.

This time I tried the line further right, but with lots of small tree covers, it wasn't as a good as the other two.

And that was pretty much it for the untracked lines.

I must say it was an interesting experience.
