Can't find any in the gallery of Slide 4 in winter. However, you may want to check out some pics taken of a hike going up Slide 4 late last Fall by Whiteface Willy, tgf67 and myself.

And you're right, Eric, it is rugged... regardless which way (and when) you are going!

That 3rd shot really gives good perspective of the steepness---nice

On a Slides day I'll always ski it once, but after that I don't get past 3 usually. I love 3.

Isn't there a 5th too??? Or maybe it's not an official "slide" but I do know it's tough to get too.

In the pic below you can see it lookers far right. You have to drop in from the highway cause the trees are just too dense to traverse from Slide 4. Ghostrider told me about his trip down it. He and his crew over shot it and had to hike back up to ski it. He said it was real hard to get to. I was hoping it would be easier to access from Lookout Mt., but after hiking up there this summer it doesn't look like that's the case to me. I hope I'm wrong.
