I've heard of it being somewhere off Two Elk but I don't know specifically how to get to it and how do you get out?

i was gonna do it then i talked to people who have and they said its really not worth it and its nothing special compared to blue sky/back bowls
 
that is something I would say to keep people out of there. It is pretty epic back there. You just take the surface lift in mongolia bowl and once you hit the top of that keep hiking straight up. You basically drop onto what looks like I70. there should be a boot pack path if not DON"T DO IT. And my guess is you don't have avi gear. You should have beacon, probe and shovel incase something does slide if you adventure out to skiers left. The farther right the safer you are. Go with a group of friends you don't want to go alone. and there isn't much of a hike out rather a bus ride back. Cliffs go from 5 to 60 ft back there enjoy and be careful
 
OB. Lots of ways in. Find local who knows shit, has peeps and experience. Ask to tag along. Alternative is not good.
 
dont go unless you got all the necessary avy gear,,, beacon, probe, shovel.... People most likily wont let you tag along unless its there first time too, locals arnt gonna take you cuz it slides easily, be careful out there... necessary 10+ cliff drop mandatory
 
I have been there. I went two years ago but if I remember correctly you take the mongolia poma lift and hike up and over the peak then drop in to the back and come out near highline. My friend took me out and it was pretty fun.
