Double black Mount Bohemia, MI
Black Beard drops 90 vertical feet over 365 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 28° about 260 feet below the top. That's steeper than 16% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 48th steepest of 125 named runs at Mount Bohemia. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 15°, Black Beard gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Bohemia does, December through March. That's shadier than 78% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th shadiest named run at Mount Bohemia. Its top sits at 1,420 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.
