这些所谓的最可怕的雪道你滑过几个呢？

1. Delirium Dive, Sunshine Village, Banff, Canada
The Ride: The topography of this off-piste free-ride zone (it starts with a horizontal rock band that funnels into a tight channel) paired with its ludicrous pitch (much of it around 50 degrees) makes it extremely avalanche-prone. So much so, in fact, that only skiers outfitted with a radio transponder (which, of course, helps rescuers find you in an avalanche) are allowed through a special gate that accesses it.
Insider Trivia: Those hell-bent on conquering the Dive can sign up for Sunshine Village’s “Delirium Sunday” ski-school program.

这个Nate家去过n多次吧，我们上次去Sunshine没有去，那时水平还太差。

2.
Corbet’s Couloir, Jackson Hole, WY
The Ride: The vast majority of skiers who approach this epic chute never muster  the courage to go down. One look over the lip of its legendary opening precipice is all  you’ll need to understand why: it’s nothing short of a cliff face. You’ll drop                      some 20 feet before your skis can even hope to connect with snow; edging over requires both a  figurative and a literal leap of faith. The good news is, once that’s over, the rest of the  run—with its average pitch of 40 degrees—will seem like cake.
Insider Trivia: The trail is named for the late James Barry  Corbet—founder of the Jackson Hole Mountain Guides—who, upon first spying the uncharted  chute in 1960, reportedly said, “Someday, someone will ski that.”

3.
La Grave, France
The Ride: Straddling the massive La Meije glacier, which tops out at more than 13,000 feet, La Grave is the ultimate out-of-bounds destination for extreme skiers. There are no trails here—just 7,000 vertical feet of unmarked, unpatrolled terrain, punctuated by sheer vertical cliffs, crevasses hundreds of feet deep, and avalanche-ready bowls. To even hope to get down safely, you’ll need to hire a mountain guide, who’ll make sure you’re equipped with rappelling gear, ice crampons, and a radio beacon. A living will’s not a bad idea, either.
Insider Trivia: Though La Grave has indeed claimed lives, its name doesn’t actually translate to “The Grave.” Rather, it means something closer to “The Serious Stuff” or “The Real Deal.”

4.
Black Hole, Smugglers’ Notch, VT
The Ride: Recommended only for skiers with a genuine taste for tree slalom,  this thickly gladed run (the only triple-black-diamond trail in the eastern U.S.) requires  super-fast hucking among pine trunks, branches, and stumps—at a 53-degree pitch.
Insider Trivia: Seasoned glade skiers know that the best trick for swooping between (rather than into) heavy trees is to keep your eye trained on the white spaces between  them.

这个雪场俺们去过，可是这个雪道有没有去过就不记得了，估计没有。

5.
La Chavanette, Avoriaz, France
The Ride: Also known as La Mur Suisse—“The Swiss Wall”—this broad, near-vertical run looks deceptively user-friendly from the bottom. The top, though, is another story—especially if it hasn’t snowed in a week. Here, the outrageously steep pitch (between 50 and 55 degrees) and wind-blasted exposure can quickly turn the terrain to slick ice; a fall here means you may tumble for the next 1,000 feet (unless you’re  stopped by a car-size mogul).（大如车的蘑菇？怕怕啊！）
Insider Trivia: Skiing La Chavanette actually lets you border-hop (or  border-plummet). The run is accessed from Avioraz, in France—but you’ll end up near Les Crosets, in Switzerland.

S+S Couloir, Jackson                      Hole, WY
The Ride: Hard as it is to believe, this outrageous couloir—it’s not actually a trail—makes its neighbor, Corbet’s, look like a walk in the park (okay,  a very steep park, but still). The run’s opening 30-foot drop into a rocky chasm dwarfs Corbet’s and is such a serious safety risk that it’s hardly ever open. Even when it is,  you’ll need permission from Jackson Hole’s ski patrol to go down—and you  won’t want to rope-duck this one. Being in good with the patrollers is important, especially  when you may need rescuing.
Insider Trivia: The trail was named for Charlie Sands and John Sims, the first two ski patrollers to make the run successfully.

这个竟然需要ski patrol的permission才能去！

7.
Rambo, Crested Butte, CO
The Ride: Like its movie-character namesake, Crested Butte’s steepest  trail takes no prisoners. Once you commit to barreling down its 55-degree pitch, there’s no  going back (unless, like many skiers, you make the hike of shame up the slope to retrieve lost  gear). The only saving grace of this trail is its brevity—mercifully, it’s just 300 meters long.
Insider Trivia: If stepping into the abyss is your idea of a good time, Crested  Butte delivers. The ski area’s entire North Face section—plus the adjoining Teocalli Bowl—is carpeted with wall-like drops and the steep freaks who love them.

8.
Grand Couloir, Courchevel, France
The Ride: Just getting to the Alps’ most famous on-piste couloir requires serious cojones. Once off the Saulire Télépherique cable car, you’ll need to  navigate a terrifyingly narrow, frequently icy 200-meter-long ridge, with steep, rocky drop-offs on                either side—and that’s just the appetizer. Next comes a sharply pitched chute that even  experts have been known to snowplow down, followed by a teeth-chattering bump field for dessert.
Insider Trivia: Though it’s less known and has an easy-to-miss entry, the adjacent Emilie Allias couloir is equally challenging.

9.
Paradise, Mad River                      Glen, VT
The Ride: An icon of New England–style extreme terrain, Paradise starts with a plunge off an eight-foot cliff—then morphs into a windy, super-steep trough that snakes between trees, around rocks, and often (since it’s never groomed) through both thick    snowdrifts and sheer patches of ice. The upside: when you go cartwheeling into the woods, you won’t have to worry about hitting any snowmaking hydrants.
Insider Trivia: Mad River is the only cooperatively owned ski area in the U.S.

10.
Great Scott, Snowbird, UT
The Ride: A 1,000-vertical-foot obstacle course, this run is pitched at a sickly-steep 40 degrees—and also punctuated with rocky knuckles and outcroppings that have  given countless skiers unintentional air. If you catch an edge or visibility is poor, don’t  be surprised to find yourself segueing from difficult terrain to no terrain at all.
Insider Trivia: With an annual average snowfall of 500 inches, Snowbird gets  some of the thickest dry powder in the West. Of course, that won’t help you much on a near-cliff.

那年一起去过犹他的同雪，有谁记得咱们是否滑过这条道啊？

11.
Harikiri, Mayrhofen, Austria
The Ride: The steepest groomed slope in the world, Harikiri (named for tJapanese suicide ritual) plunges some 1,300 feet at a treacherous 38-degree pitch. The slope’s snow machines are anchored by steel cables to keep them from hurtling down the mountain—but you won’t have that option. Fall here, and you may well keep falling…and falling.
Insider Trivia: Most avalanche experts around the world agree that 38 degrees  is the “magic slope” at which most snow slides start. It’s also about the same as  an Olympic ski-jump off-ramp.

这条雪道竟然以日本人最有名的自杀方式命名！

12.

Mont Fort and Tortin, Verbier, Switzerland

The Ride: Mogul-phobes, beware: these two bump-studded Alpine trails—which together form the longest run in Verbier’s Four Valleys—will keep your joints jackhammering for about 3,000 vertical feet. If you’ve had knee surgery, avoid this route; if you haven’t, you might need it by the time you get down.

Insider Trivia: Though it’s considered one of the roughest bump runs in Europe, Tortin is actually rated an intermediate trail. But as regulars know, that’s only accurate when there’s a thick layer of powder to cushion your shock absorbers (and your wipeouts).

膝盖受过伤的人不能去？！

13.
Al’s Run, Taos Ski Valley, NM
The Ride: A combination of length (1,800 vertical feet) and mammoth-size moguls is enough to deter plenty of skiers from attempting Al’s; worse, though, is that the entire  trail stretches beneath the No. 1 chairlift. Translation: if you’d rather make flying  face-plants without a (vocally appreciative) audience, pick another route.
Insider Trivia: In the ’60s, the mountain’s founder, Ernie Blake, used to hide beakers of martinis in the trees alongside the trails for skiers to find (hence the  name of the resort’s bar, Martini Tree).

14.
Goat, Stowe, VT

The Ride: Punishingly long (2,000 vertical feet), crazy steep (sections of it have a 40-degree pitch), and pocked with both labyrinthine glades and ungroomed bald-faced bumps, Goat has more than earned its wicked reputation. Its double fall line doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll take double the falls here—but don’t be surprised.

Insider Trivia: Allegedly, the trail was named by a summertime hiker who mused that only a mountain goat would be able to ascend it (never mind descend).

那年一起去过Stowe的同雪，有人滑过这条道吗？

我没滑过.
我在SNOWBIRD滑了两天.TRAM上面的三条双黑道(中间的就是GREAT SCOTT),我是直接忽略.左边的黑道(坐缆车也能上,最长黑道.即有直直的陡坡,又能拐到MOGULS,树林和岩石,狭缝),两天里我滑了近十趟.
