World's Scariest Ski Slopes

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.
