Black diamond Keystone, CO
Coyote Caper drops 536 vertical feet over 5,146 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 13° about 1,260 feet below the top. That's steeper than 1% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 134th steepest of 140 named runs at Keystone. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 6°, Coyote Caper gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Keystone does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 48th sunniest named run at Keystone. Its top sits at 11,240 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
