T2D2 drops 352 vertical feet over 1,066 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 32° about 30 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.

How well T2D2 holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northeast at an average 19°, T2D2 gets about 60% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the 24th shadiest named run at Silver Mountain. Its top sits at 5,830 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.
