Double black Heavenly, CA
Hully Gully drops 737 vertical feet over 2,292 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 36° about 70 feet below the top. That's steeper than 49% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 21st steepest of 124 named runs at Heavenly. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 19°, Hully Gully gets about 100% of the winter sun that flat ground at Heavenly does, December through March. That's sunnier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 26th sunniest named run at Heavenly. Its top sits at 8,960 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.
