gulf of slides

[skibum63]

where exactly is the gulf of slides... its not on the map of skiiable routes at tuckermans

[skicdave]

The Gulf of Slides is the neighbouring ravine to the south of Tucks.

See the Trail and Area Map for Tuckerman Ravine and Pinkham Notch (http://timefortuckerman.com/tuckermanravinemap.html) for more info.

Maybe this will help...
