I finally got around to editing this video - so a bit of a late post. What a beautiful day though!

Myself and some friends (including a newbie skier, you will notice me carrying her skis - training weight!) climbed up from Paradise to around 7,800'. We looked at the Nisqually chutes but decided against them due to the relative inexperience of our team.  We opted to find the Pebble Creek route described by Amar - it was super fun! In case you too want to take a mellow route out to the bridge, just go a couple hundred feet above Pan Point and turn left.  It's not super obvious until you have begun your descent - then it is wide-open, mellow slopes down to the lower Nisqually.  By far the most fun I have had skiing around Paradise. 

Enjoy the vid - and make sure your volume is UP! https://vimeo.com/92735106
