Black diamond Bretton Woods, NH
Glade West drops 571 vertical feet over 2,726 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 22° about 810 feet below the top. That's steeper than 13% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 33rd steepest of 95 named runs at Bretton Woods. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 12°, Glade West gets about 69% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bretton Woods does, December through March. That's shadier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 21st shadiest named run at Bretton Woods. Its top sits at 2,610 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.
