Unrated Mt Rose, NV
Badlands drops 329 vertical feet over 1,117 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 830 feet below the top. That's steeper than 85% of the 511 unrated runs we've measured in North America, and the 41st steepest of 65 named runs at Mt Rose. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 17°, Badlands gets about 63% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Rose does, December through March. That's shadier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 29th shadiest named run at Mt Rose. Its top sits at 8,830 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.
