Black diamond Afton Alps, MN
Inga's Run drops 272 vertical feet over 1,277 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 680 feet below the top. That's steeper than 10% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 7th steepest of 39 named runs at Afton Alps. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 12°, Inga's Run gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Afton Alps does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd shadiest named run at Afton Alps. Its top sits at 1,000 feet.
Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
