标题: THE TOP 10 DOUBLE-DIAMOND RUNS OF NORTH AMERICA

1. Alta Zero — Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Wyo.
Among Jackson Hole’s pantheon of double-diamond ski runs, Alta Zero continually came up with the polled skiers as the Wyoming resort’s best steep shot.

2. Two Smokes — Silverton Mountain, Colo.
This super-steep, doglegged chute pinches down to less than 6 feet wide at one point.

3. Climax — Whistler Blackcomb Resort, British Colombia
In the alpine cirque just below Blackcomb Peak, several precipitous chutes flank a feature called Chainsaw Ridge. The most difficult chute, according to Eric Pehota, a professional skier, is Climax.

4. Keyhole — Alpine Meadows, Calif.
Moguls, cliffs and exposed rocks on a near-vertical plane of snow makes Keyhole among the toughest runs in the Lake Tahoe region.

5. Corbet’s Couloir — Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Wyo.
Probably the most well-known double-diamond run in the world, Corbet’s Couloir starts with a mandatory air-in, which means you must jump off a large cornice just to get on the run below.

6. Avalanche Bowl to Zoom — Loveland Ski Area, Colo.
This is one of the steepest runs in Colorado, said Chad Jackson, a videographer with ski-film company Teton Gravity Research.

7. Goat — Stowe Mountain Resort, Vt.
Considered among the toughest runs in New England, Goat tumbles for nearly three-quarters of a mile, reaching 36 degrees steep and featuring bumps as large as a VW Bug.

8. The Palisades — Squaw Valley USA, Calif.
Guarding the summit of 8,900-foot Squaw Peak, the Palisades are a cliff formation fluted with semi-skiable chutes, many of which end in death-defying leaps over dark granite cliff faces.

9. Outer Limits — Killington Resort, Vt.
Gregory Ditrinco, executive editor of Ski magazine, calls Outer Limits a classic, old-school mogul run. “It’s long and relentless, and steep, so it physically beats you up,” he said.

10. Mak-M-Stairs-Plunge — Telluride, Colo.
This unending bump run is actually a combination of three different runs that drop from a 11,890-foot peak, forming a penultimate leg-burner, with giant moguls and a consistently unforgiving pitch.

我看你就省省吧。我现在就在惠斯勒呢，别说是那条进入前十的，就是其它十几条没排进去的难度道，连比量都没敢去比量。看着就肝颤儿。。。
