Black diamond Homewood, CA
Dutch Treat drops 734 vertical feet over 2,132 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 1,450 feet below the top. That's steeper than 31% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 22nd steepest of 60 named runs at Homewood. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 20°, Dutch Treat gets about 117% of the winter sun that flat ground at Homewood does, December through March. That's sunnier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd sunniest named run at Homewood. Its top sits at 7,770 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
