Black diamond Bretton Woods, NH
Stickney 5 drops 368 vertical feet over 2,629 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 750 feet below the top. That's steeper than 38% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 11th steepest of 95 named runs at Bretton Woods. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 9°, Stickney 5 gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bretton Woods does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 18th shadiest named run at Bretton Woods. Its top sits at 2,620 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.
