Vail - Lodgepole (via Eagle's Nest Ridge)

Eagle's Nest Ridge to Lodgepole is a ski run of varying difficulties located at Vail Ski Resort. The trails run from the summit of the Avanti Express (Lift #2) down to the bottom of the chairlift. The run begins to the skier's left of the top of the lift on Eagle's Nest Ridge, a beginner trail that gently runs across the top of the mountain. The run eventually turns to the right onto Lodgepole, an intermediate trail that features a series of intermediate pitches as it runs straight down the mountain. After merging with a group of trails, the lower half of the trail is named Lodgepole Gulch, and features one final pitch before arriving at the bottom of the Avanti Express.
