Black diamond June Mountain, CA
Matterhorn drops 1,016 vertical feet over 4,784 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 1,860 feet below the top. That's steeper than 14% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 11th steepest of 31 named runs at June Mountain. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 12°, Matterhorn gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at June Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th shadiest named run at June Mountain. Its top sits at 10,130 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.
