Chad's Gap is a 120-foot (around 36 meters) backcountry gap located in the Wasatch Mountains, approximately 1km North East of Alta Ski Area, in Utah, United States. One version of the structure's discovery has it that Chad Zurinskas, a local Utah resident after whom the gap was purportedly named, discovered it as a gap between two piles of mine tailings in 1999 and arranged with filmmaker Kris Ostness to make the first successful jump. The first successful jump was done by Candide Thovex.
