Each time I have skied Brown's south couloir I have either linked it with Bonita or with Hurricane.
Brown's south couloir is a fun ski option in the zone. Depending on your desires you can either ascend the southwest ridge or the east & north ridge from the saddle with Hurricane. The GPX contains both options.
