Yah, was my first complaint back in the 80's when snow boards first started appearing on the ski slopes. If they actually know how to carve turns they're no problem, but there is a huge number of people riding those boards that just do scrape descents on anything steep, so they should stay off stuff they can't carve, and that goes for skiers as well.

Thanks for including my footage at 4:15 and at 4:19! The Lake Chutes are definitely some of the most challenging lines I've skied! Good list that definitely highlights some of the more challenging areas in North America! Some other runs worth mentioning: Little Couloir - Big Sky Headwaters - Big Sky Dutch Wallet - Kicking Horse (or literally any other double black at Kicking Horse) Krakatoa - Whistler Blackcomb The Couloir - Whistler Blackcomb Exhilaration - Whistler Blackcomb Surf's Up - Whistler Blackcomb Chimney - Palisades Tahoe Heart Chute - Kirkwood S&S Couloir - Jackson Hole Forbidden Zone - Snowbird Little Chute - Alta Money 1 & 2 - Alyeska High Life - Crested Butte Body Bag - Crested Butte Third Bowl - Crested Butte East Wall & Steep Gullies - Arapahoe Basin Eden - Aspen Highlands Upper 5 - Lake Louise Kiwi Flats - Mammoth Mountain Black Bess & Honeycomb Chutes - Solitude Heart of Darkness - Winter Park Stauffenberg - Taos Wild West: Luxton's - Sunshine Village All of Silverton (if it counts)

I've found more challenging runs at Crested Butte than the ones mentioned here. Runs like Paradise Cliffs/Big Chute area are more technical, as well as the entire Headwall area. I've found Phoenix Chutes and Staircase to be challenging, and Rambo is of course no joke. Check out Teo 2 Bowl the next time you're there (If it's open) and also try Flatiron and Psycho Rocks, both of which are very challenging.

Great list

Whistler Blackcomb has some really gnarly official runs which I'd imagine are near the difficulty of these, Hawaii 5-0, Krakatoa, Crack House, Whistler Couloir, Exhilaration and Elevator to name a few. I've skied for 20+ years and don't even feel close to skilled enough to do some of the stuff I've seen here. Im sure these are all bonkers as well, but it just goes to show gnarly stuff is everywhere if you know where to look

I can say Rambo is not that hard id even say that peel, banana, third bowl, phoenix bowl, and headwall is harder

You did forget that next to Corbet’s couloir there is S&S Couloir, which has a required drop of 20+ feet into a straightaway. It has its own waiver you have to sign. You also forgot that climb down runs exist - where you have to climb down into the chute. Pipeline at Snowbird and Dutch Wallet at Kicking Horse are both examples of this. You also forgot the headwaters at Big Sky, which require a lengthy 40 minute hike to get to the end of - the whole duration you are next to a several hundred foot drop that has massive cliffs.

I don’t think Pipeline is that bad, the headwaters is a bit nerve wracking though.. for sure.

This list is definitely odd though, seems like he read an article(s) and tossed together a list to try and make profit off views.

@@killingaurapvp3178 uhhhhhh, idk about that one. Rambo's a tree cut run with a few obstacles and reaches a max pitch of 45ish degrees. Eagles Nest is a sheer rock face that requires insane billy-goating and a huge exit drop and it reaches pitches upwards of 60 degrees. It's not even a comparison, they're not even in the same league.

​@@arjunski Yeah I was trolling. This video is wildly inaccurate. Can't really personally compare the two tho cus I haven't skied Rambo but the last clip of Eagles in this video is me (basically falling down it).

No hate to this creator but I feel that when it comes to the hardest ski runs all the lists don't not care about Bridger Bowl, I know it is a small resort but they have A LOT of runs that I think are worthy of a placement on at least one of these lists. Lemme give you a list of most of them: Saber Slice, 6th Grade, Jaws 1, Cottom's Classic, Good Grief, Elf Stone, Out of Control, End of Control, Jess's Fine Line, Nun's, Trap Door Direct, Tight Squeeze, Kneil's, Dirty 'neils, Cuckoo's, Mad Women's, Brain Damage, Angry Chair, Dry Martini, Lost Shot Notch, Lost Shot Straight line, Two Way Street, Chute 7, X Couloir, Princess Point, Pondwarf's Pucker, Angel's Flight, The Diving Board, The Tree House Drop, Stimulus Package, Spud's Angry Pocket, Lower Never Never Land, The Waltz, Spicy Palapa, The Four Virtues, Mr. Wiggles, Jaws 2, Job 3, Right Side Direct and Sometimes a Good Notion. Most of these have decent media coverage, at least on You Tube. Of course I can't compare any of these to the ones in these lists from experience since I am not crazy enough to do any of these, yet, but still. Then again with these list there really is no exact top 10 hardest ski runs. Besides that decent list.

fr though Stair Case and Body Bag are much worse and that is just the start.

A basin should’ve been mentioned over breck. Overall though some pretty cool runs on this list some I didn’t know about.

Vail has a run called Pumphouse if you wanted to look at that or if you can do research on another run at vail that was closed, it was called Narrows.

You did not include the Front Four at Stowe, VT!!

Thank you

Nice list! i would add kiwi flats from mammoth mountain to this list, short but puckering, 100% no fall run, with a mandatory cliff hop half way down the skinny chute.

I went to Corbet’s, but when I went it was just pure ice and rocks. They had it closed off. One day I was there they unclosed it, but it was still pure ice, I didn’t see a single person go down. I went up to it and looked down, but said no way.

how did Big Couloir from Big Sky not make this? It's consistently over 50 degree pitches, and you need authorization and avalanche training to ride the tram up to it.

Watching the snowboarder side slipping all the snow off of Brain Damage made my blood boil. If you don’t have the skill to ski/ride it properly, stay off it.

So many facts are wrong, you might mix up degres with %. Because most of these run are no way near 45 degrees. Corbets at 50degres… wtf . Clearly you never step foot on 50degree slope to say that… snow will barely stick to it! Alaska is renowned for having the steepest mountains slope , and this is because of the abnormal climate that make the snow stick to the face.

yes reality is far lower, look at "skibum net do-it-up/comparing-steepness-of-ski-trails/" numbers few over 40° "The guys days : Ski areas are notorious for making claims. They exaggerate almost as much as skiers. In fact, the ski area spokesman’s propensity to enhance and embellish the treachery of a steep trail is second only to those of us who ski them."

You forgot about Big Skys hells half acre

Kiwi flats at Mammoth, should’ve been on the list

#2 looks the hardest. Jackson Hole #2.

Add most runs in Big Sky I’ve skied there I’m 12 not all but they’ve got a lot of hard ones.

Great video and well produced. Fun to watch. The problem with Lewis like this as it’s very subjective. A list like this is bound to upset some people. I’ve heard kill the banker is tough. I don’t think the lake shoots at Breckenridge are that difficult.I’d love to try some of them but the risk reward is just too freaky.

Corbet’s is way easier than Rambo or s&s. Corbet’s just has name recognition so people think it’s hard. There’s also not a lot of consequence from taking a crash on corbet’s. You take a 50 foot wipeout and call it a day. Also, I can only speak from experience but this is a terrible list. The hardest run at Breckenridge is probably 6 senses. Mandatory air into a mandatory straight line . They’re just saying that it’s Lake Chutes because Crazy Ivan 2 is steep af. Rambo isn’t the hardest run at crested butte. It’s fucking scary and the top is usually all rocks but it’s not harder than body bag. The problem with these lists is people haven’t actually skied these runs, so they’re just going on word of mouth. And lots of trail maps won’t give you specifics, so if you don’t know what you’re looking for, you’re not skiing it.

This is a very interesting list but you are missing some great runs. If you are going to include hike-to runs, I would rank Pipeline at Snowbird over Great Scott. Even Elevator Shaft at Snowbird is more difficult than Great Scott and you can ski right to it. I would also include Main Chute at Alta or the more difficult run to the left called Little Chute. Then there is High Rustler at Alta but I'm not sure it should be on this list unless you include the jump over the rocks at the top instead of the cheater side entry that 99% of skiers use to get in. Finally there are many code-brown-inducing runs at Kicking Horse and at least one of them should be on this list. Unfortunately Kicking Horse doesn't get as much publicity as some of the other resorts on this list and so it is easy to overlook them. Do yourself a favor and make the trip. It is the real deal.

2%???

S&S Couloir???

you missed s&s colouir in jackson hole is just on side coberts and requires a turn in the air so you not hit a rock wall

If you don't speak French, like most people reading this, it is a lot harder to learn how to pronounce "couloir" than say, an English word like "chute". Newsflash, professor, most people who learn to speak English first, have a very hard time learning to pronounce writen French words. I guess most of them, are not as smrt as you seem to think that you are. I bet you never had any difficulty learning how to pronounce terms/names such as; Rendezvous, Gros Ventre, or Dubois, huh.

hey buddy u forgot the entire headwaters ski area at Big Sky, where it is a 40 minute hike along a cliff where you only have about 1 1/2 widths of your foot to step ... and once you actually get to the trail there is almost never anywhere to go. On top of all this, once you actually get to ski the trail, you have to have a complete knowledge of the area because a wrong path on any of the chutes could take you to some mandatory air that could potentially be dangerous It is one of the scariest things I have ever done in my 13 years of existence I legitimately almost died 3 time in the past 3 years that I have skied them
