Double black June Mountain, CA
Gull Canyon drops 826 vertical feet over 2,328 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 36° about 220 feet below the top. That's steeper than 47% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 2nd steepest of 31 named runs at June Mountain. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 21°, Gull Canyon gets about 61% of the winter sun that flat ground at June Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 9th shadiest named run at June Mountain. Its top sits at 8,530 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.
