how long ago was that? I laugh at the fact that they actually groom it and call it the same name. When I skiied it in the 70s it was at least 15 -20 of air as you literally dropped over a negative slope till the backs of your skiis even touched the snow at a near vertical slope for the first 20 yards or so.

That's not Cornice - that's Scotties. And where was the 'drop in' - back up where you started.

Scottie seemed a lot steeper back on the 70s - when the cornice really was a cornice with an over 20' beyond vertical drop in onto a near vertical slope for the first 20 - 30 yards. now they groom it. lol. and people feel the need to post this now intermediate run. that's another thing. now because everyone needs their participation recognition, how many levels of black diamond runs are there? talk about lowering the bar. the jump back then from intermediate to black diamond was literally a dangerous one.
