Black diamond Northstar, CA
Camp Glade drops 1,020 vertical feet over 3,573 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 470 feet below the top. That's steeper than 36% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 19th steepest of 90 named runs at Northstar. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 17°, Camp Glade gets about 49% of the winter sun that flat ground at Northstar does, December through March. That's shadier than 93% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd shadiest named run at Northstar. Its top sits at 7,590 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.
