Black diamond Deer Valley, UT
Triangle Trees drops 673 vertical feet over 2,367 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 38° about 1,860 feet below the top. That's steeper than 93% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 12th steepest of 224 named runs at Deer Valley. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 18°, Triangle Trees gets about 94% of the winter sun that flat ground at Deer Valley does, December through March. That's sunnier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 70th sunniest named run at Deer Valley. Its top sits at 8,370 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.
