Black diamond Bretton Woods, NH
Fast Fall drops 147 vertical feet over 425 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 32° about 230 feet below the top. That's steeper than 71% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 2nd steepest of 95 named runs at Bretton Woods. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 21°, Fast Fall gets about 56% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bretton Woods does, December through March. That's shadier than 89% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th shadiest named run at Bretton Woods. Its top sits at 2,750 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.
