The Woods drops 339 vertical feet over 815 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 29° about 270 feet below the top. That's steeper than 48% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 23rd steepest of 46 named runs at Pebble Creek. It faces north.

How well The Woods holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 25°, The Woods gets about 49% of the winter sun that flat ground at Pebble Creek does, December through March. That's shadier than 94% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th shadiest named run at Pebble Creek. Its top sits at 7,530 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.
