Anesthesia Chute 6 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. Chute 6 is very, very narrow. It is about 8-10 feet wide and must be skied with hop turns for the safest experience. it is surrounded by large cliffs but has a clear entry with a cornice that a skier could ski over or jump off.
