Blue Deer Valley, UT
Carbenite drops 1,099 vertical feet over 4,343 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 32° about 390 feet below the top. That's steeper than 98% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 40th steepest of 224 named runs at Deer Valley. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 15°, Carbenite gets about 93% of the winter sun that flat ground at Deer Valley does, December through March. That's sunnier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the 72nd sunniest named run at Deer Valley. Its top sits at 9,290 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.
