Black diamond Greek Peak, NY
Trident drops 189 vertical feet over 1,761 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 22° about 1,730 feet below the top. That's steeper than 11% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 14th steepest of 56 named runs at Greek Peak. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 6°, Trident gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Greek Peak does, December through March. That's sunnier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th sunniest named run at Greek Peak. Its top sits at 2,060 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.
