Park drops 804 vertical feet over 2,334 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 510 feet below the top. That's steeper than 34% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 3rd steepest of 15 named runs at Loup Loup. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 20°, Park gets about 63% of the winter sun that flat ground at Loup Loup does, December through March. That's shadier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 7th shadiest named run at Loup Loup. Its top sits at 5,020 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.
