Double black Lost Trail, MT
Lower Hollywood drops 206 vertical feet over 1,522 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 3% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 56th steepest of 67 named runs at Lost Trail. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 8°, Lower Hollywood gets about 101% of the winter sun that flat ground at Lost Trail does, December through March. That's sunnier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 32nd sunniest named run at Lost Trail. Its top sits at 7,510 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.
