Double black Park City, UT
Black Forest drops 428 vertical feet over 1,675 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 36° about 920 feet below the top. That's steeper than 49% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 51st steepest of 334 named runs at Park City. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 16°, Black Forest gets about 74% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 102nd shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 9,040 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.
