Double black Deer Valley, UT
Daly Chute 3 drops 344 vertical feet over 589 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 41° about 130 feet below the top. That's steeper than 74% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 9th steepest of 224 named runs at Deer Valley. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 36°, Daly Chute 3 gets about 43% of the winter sun that flat ground at Deer Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 97% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd shadiest named run at Deer Valley. Its top sits at 9,110 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.
