Blue Deer Valley, UT
Keno drops 1,309 vertical feet over 4,114 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 2,830 feet below the top. That's steeper than 89% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 94th steepest of 224 named runs at Deer Valley. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 19°, Keno gets about 61% of the winter sun that flat ground at Deer Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 29th shadiest named run at Deer Valley. Its top sits at 9,270 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.
