Black diamond Deer Valley, UT
Nemesis drops 1,020 vertical feet over 2,272 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 37° about 920 feet below the top. That's steeper than 89% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 15th steepest of 224 named runs at Deer Valley. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 27°, Nemesis gets about 66% of the winter sun that flat ground at Deer Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 44th shadiest named run at Deer Valley. Its top sits at 8,650 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.
