Black diamond Loon Mountain, NH
Can't Dog drops 223 vertical feet over 989 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 25° about 940 feet below the top. That's steeper than 26% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 16th steepest of 76 named runs at Loon Mountain. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 13°, Can't Dog gets about 55% of the winter sun that flat ground at Loon Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 90% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th shadiest named run at Loon Mountain. Its top sits at 2,610 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.
