Hammy's Delight drops 231 vertical feet over 665 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 32° about 410 feet below the top. That's steeper than 68% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 25th steepest of 69 named runs at Silver Mountain. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 21°, Hammy's Delight gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 78% of the runs we've measured, and the 29th shadiest named run at Silver Mountain. Its top sits at 5,760 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.
