Double black Antelope Butte, WY
E1 drops 598 vertical feet over 2,308 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 1,920 feet below the top. That's steeper than 11% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 22nd steepest of 40 named runs at Antelope Butte. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 15°, E1 gets about 61% of the winter sun that flat ground at Antelope Butte does, December through March. That's shadier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th shadiest named run at Antelope Butte. Its top sits at 9,420 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.
