Shamus drops 551 vertical feet over 1,761 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 1,090 feet below the top. That's steeper than 64% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 229th steepest of 334 named runs at Park City. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 18°, Shamus gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 60% of the runs we've measured, and the 137th shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 8,250 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.
