Double black (extreme) Crested Butte, CO
Pinball drops 326 vertical feet over 1,110 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 34° about 20 feet below the top. That's steeper than 41% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 126th steepest of 227 named runs at Crested Butte. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 18°, Pinball gets about 64% of the winter sun that flat ground at Crested Butte does, December through March. That's shadier than 80% of the runs we've measured, and the 25th shadiest named run at Crested Butte. Its top sits at 10,350 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.
