Black diamond Killington, VT
Old Superstar drops 246 vertical feet over 955 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 560 feet below the top. That's steeper than 9% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 83rd steepest of 154 named runs at Killington. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 15°, Old Superstar gets about 55% of the winter sun that flat ground at Killington does, December through March. That's shadier than 89% of the runs we've measured, and the 17th shadiest named run at Killington. Its top sits at 3,540 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.
