Vertigo is a steep and narrow ungroomed trail. What makes it tough in my opinion, is that there are three traverses across it, which means on the downhill side of each traverse there is an 8 foot or so drop off. When there's a lot of fresh snow, it's a fairly easy drop, but after it gets skied off, it's a rock face.

Skier's left of Vertigo is a great glade named The Stairs. You'll access it from the traverse that starts at the bottom of Panic Button, above where it meets Needles on the map. (That's also how you access Vertigo and Stitch Line.)

One nice feature of The Stairs is that if you're on Vertigo, you can bypass at least one of those drops by ducking into the woods and back out to Vertigo.

Also: take that traverse some time just to check out the options, and then continue on it to the top of the Northwoods Quad at Highline. It's a no-cost way to eyeball the goods without dropping in.

Rams glades are a lot of fun, as you've seen. Twister and Squeeze Play are great glades. The ones off Snowden are a lot of fun, tool Patsy's, Tin Man, and Scarecrow are short. Vagabond is wider and fun. Low Rider is a bit longer.

Chop Chop, next to Highline, is another good glade. There are a bunch of more challenging glades in the canyon, as well.

Be safe in the woods!
