Black diamond Maverick Mountain, MT
Enchanted Forest drops 200 vertical feet over 769 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 660 feet below the top. That's steeper than 7% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 14th steepest of 18 named runs at Maverick Mountain. It faces south.
Facing south at an average 15°, Enchanted Forest gets about 151% of the winter sun that flat ground at Maverick Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 98% of the runs we've measured, and the sunniest named run at Maverick Mountain. Its top sits at 8,380 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
