Yep, that is the waterfall on waterfall. The trail starts at the gondi house and goes straight down, accross switchback and down to the top of Gondolier. I was wondering what the pitch was in degrees for that little strech.

skiied Liftline and Bypass last year with my son on a day with frozen, chunky hardpack covered by a few inches of new snow - early april - not good. Liftline is not extremely steep and has moderates in intervals the whole way down, it is/was extremely bumped up. My son had some trouble on a particular steep portion about half way down but skiied it pretty well. Bypass is a totally different animal - very narrow, steep, ledges with obstacles - but a runout at the end. my son was totally overmatched! I came around a corner and he was lying in the snow above a ledge - it is the only time I can remember him saying "Dad, what should I do?"
