Black diamond Mount Snow, VT
Olympic drops 1,021 vertical feet over 4,274 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 410 feet below the top. That's steeper than 18% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 23rd steepest of 86 named runs at Mount Snow. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 14°, Olympic gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Snow does, December through March. That's shadier than 79% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th shadiest named run at Mount Snow. Its top sits at 3,570 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.
