We ranked our favorite mountains for steep chutes and extreme terrain.
We want our double black diamonds to point down with a steep incline.
Here are our picks of the best.
|
"Big Couloir" is a 42 degree, 1,400 plus vertical foot, rock lined chute on the peak of "Lone Mountain". One at a time, please. To get there take the Lone Peak Tram. "The Gullies" is also available from the same tram.
If that doesn't do it for you, look for the 50 degree "Castro's Shoulder" also on the same peak. It's all steep off this peak.

This mountain has copious quantities of challenging terrain for the advanced skier.
The lifts near town are the quickest way there. The traditional steep chutes can be found on runs such as "Dihedral Chute" on "Black Iron Bowl" off of lift 12 (Prospect Lift) plus a hike.

Check out "East Wall" (Hike required).
