Here's is the write up from this website about the route up to 8812 bowl:
"Begin at the Balu Pass trailhead behind the Glacier Park Lodge. Take the first bridge crossing and follow the valley bottom until you hit the first major slide path coming from Grizzly Shoulder. Stick to the trees on the north side of the valley (following the summer trail) until you reach the western end of the valley where, looking north, you will have a clear view of 8812 bowl. Caution is needed here as this is a large run-out zone in high avi danger. Tour up the bowl using islands of safety and one person at a time until you reach the saddle directly below and to the east of the summit of 8812 peak. Now - enjoy the ski and follow your route back down to the hot tub at the Glacier Park Lodge."
Even though I've only skied that line once, if I saw someone put a skintrack up the bowl, I'd be shaking my head! I'm pretty sure the guidebook says to go up the ridge to Bruins pass. Anyways, that's the route I used. Any thoughts?
