Double black Caberfae Peaks, MI
1-75 drops 220 vertical feet over 645 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 35° about 50 feet below the top. That's steeper than 43% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 1st steepest of 26 named runs at Caberfae Peaks. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 20°, 1-75 gets about 117% of the winter sun that flat ground at Caberfae Peaks does, December through March. That's sunnier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the sunniest named run at Caberfae Peaks. Its top sits at 1,530 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
