Black diamond Granite Peak, WI
Panorama drops 204 vertical feet over 627 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 110 feet below the top. That's steeper than 27% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 13th steepest of 59 named runs at Granite Peak. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 19°, Panorama gets about 50% of the winter sun that flat ground at Granite Peak does, December through March. That's shadier than 93% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd shadiest named run at Granite Peak. Its top sits at 1,820 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.
