Peel Off drops 222 vertical feet over 700 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 130 feet below the top. That's steeper than 16% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 22nd steepest of 49 named runs at Kelly Canyon. It faces northeast.

How well Peel Off holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 19°, Peel Off gets about 66% of the winter sun that flat ground at Kelly Canyon does, December through March. That's shadier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 20th shadiest named run at Kelly Canyon. Its top sits at 6,620 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.
