Green Ski Mystic Deer Mountain, SD
Horseman drops 64 vertical feet over 525 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 74% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 31st steepest of 52 named runs at Ski Mystic Deer Mountain. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 7°, Horseman gets about 105% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ski Mystic Deer Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 76% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th sunniest named run at Ski Mystic Deer Mountain. Its top sits at 6,330 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
