Double black Blue Mountain, ON
Willy's drops 440 vertical feet over 1,681 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 29° about 740 feet below the top. That's steeper than 21% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 10th steepest of 55 named runs at Blue Mountain. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 15°, Willy's gets about 69% of the winter sun that flat ground at Blue Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th shadiest named run at Blue Mountain. Its top sits at 1,340 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.
