East Coast Skier Narrates His First Time Dropping Into Wyomings Hardest Trail

"Commonly considered one of the most challenging ski trails in America, Corbet's Couloir at Jackson Hole features a 20-foot initial drop and 50-degree pitch which looms large for any skier or snowboarder who visits the iconic Wyoming resort and wants to go home saying the conquered everything the mountain had to offer. Generations of skiers from across the world have traveled to Jackson Hole and stepped up to the edge to judge if their skills accumulated at their home mountains are enough"

"If you do decide to bite the bullet and drop into Corbet's you should not feel obligated to do it all at once, rather you can take the conservative approach and inch down its nearly vertical Goat Path like this east coast skier who narrated his first approach into Corbet's. Ultimately there is a moment towards the bottom that requires total commitment but its manageable if you have a plan and ski it deliberately."

Corbet's Couloir at Jackson Hole features a 20-foot initial drop and a 50-degree pitch, making it one of North America's steepest and most challenging ski lines. Many skiers and snowboarders travel to Jackson Hole to test their skills, and the approach often intimidates competitors who sometimes turn away. Skiers can descend conservatively by inching down the near-vertical Goat Path, but a lower section requires full commitment. Successful descent depends on deliberate technique and a clear plan. Access to Corbet's requires the Aerial Tram, which climbs 4,139 vertical feet in under ten minutes, and Corbet's Cabin serves food nearby.
