    So sad that I don't remember Cannon before the Quad. I think I skied there as a youngster with my family before Peabody Quad went in but I really can't remember much about that trip except freezing on the Cannonball Quad and not being able to ski the bumps on Upper Hard.

    I don't remember Goat Path but that gets you half of Middle Cannon per the map above. I'll have to look for the remains of that trail this season. Considering how much vert that double serviced, not being able to access half of Middle Hard or Bypass seems trivial. And F Bypass. Man. Was that trail ever good?

    You know where Goat path is. It is at the bottom of Easy Link. It is where they store the gates for training sessions behind the rope.

    I'm surprised nobody has said Juggernaut at K yet. Go back there in the wrong conditions and you are hiking not skiing.

    Personally I like the isolation though.

    I love the natural right side of mouse trap...The left is all groomed out and boring.

    Ill second Double Dipper at K. One of the ugliest scars in the east reminding us all of what could have been. Could have been an awesome set of trails coming down through the canyon in its place. Now its an overgroomed, windscoured, skating rink.

    I'll go on that usually only for safety meetings and/or lunch, but I always regret having done it by latter third of the trail.

    Easy Winder( I think that is its name) at Ragged. I made the mistake of taking it on a warm day. Juggernaut is a black compared to this one.

    Any of the runouts at Alta especially on a deep powder day. You better find a track or you are poling.
