Double black Granite Peak, WI
Mama Mie drops 47 vertical feet over 200 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 32° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 31% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 1st steepest of 59 named runs at Granite Peak. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 14°, Mama Mie gets about 72% of the winter sun that flat ground at Granite Peak does, December through March. That's shadier than 68% of the runs we've measured, and the 29th shadiest named run at Granite Peak. Its top sits at 1,750 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.
