Black diamond Lutsen Mountains, MN
Raven drops 208 vertical feet over 684 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 22° about 230 feet below the top. That's steeper than 12% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 33rd steepest of 87 named runs at Lutsen Mountains. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 18°, Raven gets about 79% of the winter sun that flat ground at Lutsen Mountains does, December through March. That's shadier than 57% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th shadiest named run at Lutsen Mountains. Its top sits at 1,540 feet.
It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
