Peak 9 features E chair which has some of the steepest terrain, massive moguls and trees in Summit County, CO. The Devil’s Crotch ski run (what a great name) is the steepest and purest mogul run I have ever seen. The huge moguls and steep drops make it a pure adrenaline rush and a real leg burner.
The tree skiing under E chair is very nice, steep and spaced out. The trees under E chair offer beautiful lines, but you’ll have to scout each line out carefully. If you really enjoy trees, you must hike up to the Windows ski run. Once you get off E Chair, just hike up and you’ll see the way to Windows.
This is usually the locals secret powder stash, but I am inclined to share it with you. I know you’ll love the beautiful trees and chutes which lead you right back to the bottom of E chair. Windows is my personal favorite and I am sure it will be yours too.
If you continue the Windows hike up another quarter mile it will take you to a great powder bowl with waste deep powder after a snow storm. This run is simply amazing. Beware of the snow covered stream at the bottom. If your not careful you could possibly get wet. So always stay skiers...
