Black diamond Cranmore Mountain, NH
Tree Meister Glades drops 434 vertical feet over 1,432 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 25° about 1,110 feet below the top. That's steeper than 26% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 6th steepest of 54 named runs at Cranmore Mountain. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 18°, Tree Meister Glades gets about 93% of the winter sun that flat ground at Cranmore Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the 34th sunniest named run at Cranmore Mountain. Its top sits at 1,150 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
