Up the canyon at Solitude, more of Utah's greatest snow on earth, especially in Honeycomb canyon, where skiers and boarders can find tree shots, chutes, and deep deep snow.

Hopping over the terrain to Deer Valley, Heidi Voelker of the US Ski Team takes us out to play.. Here, Voelker races through the gladed groves of trees, off piste, where the snow stays deep for days after a storm. This spot is called Sunset Trees.

Next Door, at Park City, some super steep thrills take you out of this world.. to Jupiter Peak. The toughest chutes of them all are right off the peak, and a very brave Utah Olympic star, Jeremy Nobis, rips right down them like a breeze.

Speaking of ripping, one of Utah's very famous extreme skiers is Gordy Pieffer. You can recognize him by his ability to fly down and slice through the snow in some of utah's longest, deepest chutes. This is Pieffer turning 'em all the way down Glory Hole.

Another nice line that's a challenge to survive all the way down... is Bishops Bowl at Sundance. This bowl is nice and steep, it has a perfect fall line, and its heaven to blaze through .. all the way down... it must take one hundred turns top to bottom and its all good.

Finally, we're onto Snowbird, where skiers are blown away by the endless terrain and steep thrills. Here you can spend the entire day in open bowls, chutes and trees: all in deep, fluffy snow, like this powder found in Tiger Tail.

(Solitude Resort) The run is called Parachute. You get to it by taking the Powder Horn Quad, and you head skiers right from the top. There's definately something to a run named Parachute--be it the flight, the drop, or the feeling of a controlled free fall through an extremely long line of untracked snow.

Off the highest lift at Sundance, you have Bishop's Bowl, and a wide array of tree shots and gentle shoots. This ski area takes your breath away. Whether you are awestruck by the majestic mountains, or powder flies in your face.

At the very tip top of the Park City Ski Area, Jupiter peak looms high above the rest of the world.There are two prominent chutes that seriously challenge even the very best athletes.

You can find this breathtaking area at the very top of Solitude Ski Resort. Its a big bowl , laced with picturesque rocks.

On this day, brothers Derek and Mason Osborne were sharing powder shots. The area is overwhelming. You have a choice of routes down that range from slightly steep to elevator shaft- steep. You can ski far from trees, right along tree lines, or you can find stashes of mini forests. Most of the trees here are big and old, so you have lots of room to navigate your way around them.

The slopes here have a great exposure, so storms always seem to dump an extra dose of snow here... and as you can see, its perfect powder. This is a great destination for skiers who want to charge down the fall line, watch their friends, and enjoy the spectacular scenery.

Your off.. your turning... the snow is soft here... and you just keep going like the everready battery bunny.

If you have to stop to rest before you slam all the way to the bottom, at least you can look up and watch some other experts carve up the mountain like a thanksgiving turkey.

You're watching Holly Flanders slice through the snow with ease. She's a two time olympic downhill racer and a 3 time world cup downhill champion. And now she's the skiing director at Wolf Mountain... and this wide open bowl is her favorite run there.

On this day, the powder was just right, for the local extreme skier to fly off the rocks and great turns all the way down. (Courtesy: RSR Productions, Park City)

This week, we take you to the top of Park City Ski Area .. up the Jupiter lift and out to a whole new world...

Check out some of these steep chutes:

The Pipeline above Snowbird is famous. Located above the tram over on twin peaks, it takes a hike to get there.

Look at this video. Chutes are dangerous... and this is a very long chute. There is no room for mistakes. You have to turn em and you can't fall. You have to watch out for deadly rocks and avalanches. This is definately a steep thrill. Too steep and too thrilling for the far majority of expert skiers. But there are those who cross that line from the expert.. into the extreme. Here you can spot skiers who are very courageous, and maybe also crazy! (Courtesy: RSR Productions, Park City)

(Susan) yes.. Lower Cirruqe.. Mark Schnell..Tear Drop, Great Scott... and all the big bowls!

(Mark) I like Tiger Tail... check it out, its this weeks Steep Thrills:

You can find a run called Tiger Tail on the west side of the snowbird ski resort. Its away from the tram and some of the more obvious steep thrills on this 11,000 foot mountian.

Its like a hidden haven of powder off the Gad 2 chair. Here, you' re only allowed to ski when the avalanche danger has passed.. because snow storms race into Little Cottonwood Canyon on a regular basis and dump feet of fluffy snow on these mountians. You're watching local extreme skiers John Argyle and Jason Parkinson tear up this challenging terrain.

Tiger Tail is above Snowbird's newly opened area called Thunder bowl. So now, you get an even longer run through the trees and down nice steep fall lines.

(Mark) I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to go play in the chutes... It was a little tricky .. but fun. Take a look:

On the far right side of the Brighton ski area, just to the left of the Millicent chair lift, you can see some of the steepest thrills around. Nestled between rocks, trees, and ridges, expert skiers can find several steep chutes.

This is the cliff area. Here, you find 3 narrow chutes to chose from. Definately a double black diamond rating here. The tough stuff is almost hidden, you start by skiing down some powdery knolls... just rolling away fairly effortlessly.. then, you find these nooks and crannies... where you have to stop and think before you go. And when you go... the pitch is mean and you have to turn 'em fast to survive without bailing. This particular chute was not only steep and narrow, but forced you to bear left while struggling to stay on top of your skis. After about 6 turns, its over.

This is Sunshine Bowl. and right now, its more like one big Powder Bowl. A boarder, skier and telemarker all sail through this snow with ease, enjoying the thrill. I know my heart was racing, afterall, its been about 7 months since we had this amount of Utah Powder in our backyards. You can find this particular playground in Big Cottonwood Canyon, at the Solitude ski area, just off the Eagle Express High speed Quad.

Redfinger, at Sundance is an open bowl thats wide and steep at the top and gets narrow and steeper at the bottom.

The run " 51-50" gives you a detailed description of just how steep it is right there in its name! The Park City spot gets you going with a steep dive right off the top into a 51 degree pitch that funnels into a tight rocky chute!

Over in Big Cottonwood Canyon, Rein's run is a big favorite for Brighton's best skiers and boarders. The run is a narrow chute only 5 feet wide in the cliff area off ttthe great western quad.

At Snowbird, the upper cirque is a classic open bowl that catches a huge amount of high quality Utah powder. When you stand and the top of the upper cirque and look down,you have an unlimiting array of room, along with access to several different chutes to choose from.

As the snow starts building along the Wasatch Front, we'll take you down some of the most thrilling runs around the state.
