Blue Holiday Valley, NY
Reindeer drops 159 vertical feet over 693 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 140 feet below the top. That's steeper than 48% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 21st steepest of 74 named runs at Holiday Valley. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 13°, Reindeer gets about 69% of the winter sun that flat ground at Holiday Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 73% of the runs we've measured, and the 25th shadiest named run at Holiday Valley. Its top sits at 1,840 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.
