Double black Mount Bohemia, MI
Blackbeard drops 33 vertical feet over 331 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 290 feet below the top. That's steeper than 7% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 80th steepest of 125 named runs at Mount Bohemia. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 9°, Blackbeard gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Bohemia does, December through March. That's sunnier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 108th sunniest named run at Mount Bohemia. Its top sits at 1,450 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.
