Black diamond Bousquet, MA
Dino's Chute drops 153 vertical feet over 476 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 290 feet below the top. That's steeper than 31% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 5th steepest of 19 named runs at Bousquet. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 19°, Dino's Chute gets about 57% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bousquet does, December through March. That's shadier than 88% of the runs we've measured, and the shadiest named run at Bousquet. Its top sits at 1,510 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.
