Black diamond Greek Peak, NY
Electra drops 257 vertical feet over 1,042 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 25° about 330 feet below the top. That's steeper than 22% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 7th steepest of 56 named runs at Greek Peak. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 14°, Electra gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Greek Peak does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th shadiest named run at Greek Peak. Its top sits at 1,970 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.
