Black diamond Deer Valley, UT
Anchor Treess drops 337 vertical feet over 1,774 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 22° about 160 feet below the top. That's steeper than 12% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 151st steepest of 224 named runs at Deer Valley. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 11°, Anchor Treess gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Deer Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 78% of the runs we've measured, and the 42nd shadiest named run at Deer Valley. Its top sits at 9,180 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.
