I don't know the names of all the shots off of Baldy Shoulder (thanks for that info). All I know is that we entered Ballroom to get there and had to schlep up to the top of the traverse to ski that line. It was pretty sweet, even on lap 3 with the other tracks. Snow quality was excellent. We did 4 total from that traverse, in different places. I'm sure each one had a name. The first run was down by the first fence and it was totally virgin untracked. No time to take a photo of that...there was a bit of a frenzy the first time in and many of the good lines were full of avy debris. The next few laps were less intense and had more tracks but there was much less pressure.
Off Backside, we almost got through the chute that drops into Glory Hole (on it's left shoulder...I'm sure it has a name), but when we got to it, we found avy control charges black/gray debris and bailed...which saved us from the slog out. After looking at it from the Sugarloaf lift, it seemed that if we braved the explosed snow we could have had some sweet turns to the side of it in Glory Hole. There were a few huge slides in there and we saw people in there trying to get out. Seemed like we made the right decision. There were plenty of nice untracked turns to be found elsewhere throughout the day.
While it is fun to follow locals around, it was also fun exploring on our own. We didn't make too many advanced decisions and when we got off the lift, just about every time, it seemed somewhat obvious where to go...except our last run. No one was on the High T...wondered why. But it was rewarded with untracked in Eagle's Nest.
