The outing is an out-and-back of about 1.6 miles, with a total climb of 293 feet from the start at 4,593 feet to a high point of 4,671 feet. The steepest stretch comes at about 0.65 miles in, with a grade of 13 percent. The route is rated moderate, and the climb is short enough to fit easily into a longer day on the park's ski network. Several other ski routes sit just 0.1 mile away, including Art's Boogie, Alpine and Linder Ridge, so it works well as a connector or a stop along the way. For paddling, Blanchard Creek is about 6 miles away and Deadman Creek about 9 miles away.
