About the trail
A loop from Polyana 2200 through the Alpine Meadows trail, continuing along part of the Chernichnaya Trail to the ridge before returning to the upper cable-car station. Unlike the shorter Alpine Meadows walk, this recorded track adds an extra climb toward the ridge. The route is exposed alpine terrain, so check the weather and the resort's current trail status before setting out.
