Most EXTREME Run You've Hit? *Pics*

I used the search bar and didn't find a thread exactly like this. But correct me if I'm wrong.

Anyways. I know most kids these days seem to be inebriated by park riding. But I would like some peeps to post / share pictures of the gnarliest TERRAIN you've ridden.

I grew up riding at Snowbasin, Utah. They have some of the greatest / steepest / least ridden / most accessible terrain [at least from my experience.]

I've hit most of the FINGER CHUTES which are a series of 5/6 [depending on snow pack] narrow and steep chutes in the Mt Ogden Bowl, adjacent to where the men's downhill run starts.

Everything I can think of from Mongolia the other day was shallow glades with nice pow, even if you hike all the way up.  Where are you talking about?  Maybe I need to check it out farther skiers left.

I've skied a bunch of runs like that at park city...

you want to die at the end. It KILLS your legs. It's not even fun, it's pretty much just a hardcore workout lol. Insta-regret by the time you get halfway down

this is DOA in the sidecountry off blackcomb. def not the gnarliest ive done but the only pic i have. Ive skied most of the lines on WB with the exception of a few horseshoes and the short icy ones i deemed not worth my time.

Work computer doesn't like NS, so just the link:

This entire face was fucking ridiculous. But this triple stager was a different level of stupid. This year I'm gonna nail it though.

Doesn't beat the moguls shots though.. I mean fuuuuuck. PAIN.

hahaha outer limits is not that extreme. I finally got a chance to do devils fiddle last year and imo its much more challenging then outer limits. And theres a cool little cliff in the middle you could jump if you'd like

not much snow coverage and used hypodermic needles everywhere, plus the constant threat of getting shot and or mugged. not even kidding.

You might be thinking of a different bowl, Mongolia doesn't really have any drops, or moguls for that matter.  Did you go OB to melon or mush?  If not im guessing you're thinking of Dragon's Teeth in China Bowl just below two elk.  You can take that cliff pretty deep on a good day but there aren't many good enough days to take it from the top.

I shralped this mini-golfer about a month ago on the Stubaier Glacier in Austria. Not the most extreme thing ever, but the mandatory huck at the bottom definitely had my heart beating.
