March 1999     Skier:  Piano Man

Looking down the throat of Sweet Little Annie.  You can air in from the side here, or go straight down the throat to the right, but it's 47 degrees and sometimes only a few inches wide, usually with a mandatory drop.  Check your speed immediately, so you don't crash into the sheer walls of the narrow chute.  If you can make it inside, it's a beautiful place.  But then you still have to get out.
