If you're the type of skiier that likes to bust into chute, 'shred the bumps, or just rip up some fresh powder, then head to Kirkwood and ski off of Wagon Wheel and Cornice. Wagon Wheel and Cornice offer a variety of terrain that's all advanced and expert. So, by skiing these chairs you'll get away from all of the beginners and have plenty of room to 'shred. Off of Wagon Wheel and Cornice there are many Double Diamond Expert Chutes that are a blast. They keep some of the best snow on the mountain.
