When I came across this trail name it got me wondering just what it meant. I went home and googled it. From what I found, it basically is a bird migration highway. So that go me to thinking of the skiers going down the trail, flying like birds. I have only downhill skied once. (It was not pretty!) and never cross country skied. I would definitely NOT be one of those flyers. This is a bit of a bushwack, about 55 feet. Shorter as the crow flys!
