Keith Glen Glade drops 328 vertical feet over 719 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 38° about 290 feet below the top. That's steeper than 92% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 30th steepest of 139 named runs at Aspen Mountain. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 27°, Keith Glen Glade gets about 59% of the winter sun that flat ground at Aspen Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 86% of the runs we've measured, and the 28th shadiest named run at Aspen Mountain. Its top sits at 10,240 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.
