Anesthesia Chute 4 Map

The hardest runs at Park City are what I call the Anesthesia Chutes off of Fantasy Ridge. They are barely ever open, but when they are, the chutes are adrenaline-inducing thrill rides. They only open on deep powder days when the rocks and exposed terrain are covered. The fourth chute is where things start to get intense. There are two ways to enter it, one is mandatory air off of a small rock into the chute, and the other is a narrow traverse and hop turn around a tree and into the chute. After the entrance, it is a 10-foot wide shot down to Dutch Hollow. One of the harder chutes.
