Poop Chute is a short mountain biking route in Nevada, about 1.9 miles from Boulder City. The climb is only 0.14 miles long, rising from 3,161 feet to 3,309 feet, a total gain of 124 feet. The steepest part comes early, at about 0.05 miles in, with a 17% grade. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Las Vegas show April highs around 80°F and October highs around 82°F, while July averages climb to about 106°F. That station sits roughly 1,000 feet lower than the route, so temperatures on the climb run cooler. The Kevorkian trail starts just 0.1 miles away, and Snake Back and Armageddon are each about 0.2 miles off. Climbers can find Boy Scout Canyon about 5.3 miles away.
