Anesthesia Chute 9 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 9 is very steep but a lot less extreme or narrow than the others. It has an easy entrance around some trees and is a little longer than the other shots. One of my favorite shots off the ridge.
