Green Big Sky, MT
Deep South drops 1,191 vertical feet over 7,772 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 4,290 feet below the top. That's steeper than 87% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 231st steepest of 290 named runs at Big Sky. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 9°, Deep South gets about 112% of the winter sun that flat ground at Big Sky does, December through March. That's sunnier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 82nd sunniest named run at Big Sky. Its top sits at 8,760 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
