Description: It is true what they say about Parsenn Bowl. You do pretty much start at "the top of the world" when you go to this place. It is like the perfect spot to be. There is a lot of open space and the powder is great. You truly do feel like you are on top of the world, and it takes your breath away.
One thing that I do have to warn you about is the mean lift, the Timberline. This lift is one of a kind. First off, it is a two-seater, so that tells you that it will be one of those wobbly ones, since there is only the weight of two people on it. Well, it didn't help me that I was sitting next to my 7-year-old sister-in-law, who weighed about as much as one of my legs. I also need to warn you that the exit off this lift is a little different. Instead of going forward off a lift like most of the other ones, this one basically "kicks" you off very quickly and you have no choice but to take a sharp left turn because there is no other way to go. If you are not an semi-experienced skier or snowboarder, try to practice a little more before coming up here and be sure you are good at getting off lifts. This lift is pretty scary in my opinion, but has a beautiful view.
If you are scared of heights, save yourself and don't come up here. This bowl is really made for experienced skiers and snowboarders, so if this is your first time skiing, don't try this just yet.
