Blue Ski Mystic Deer Mountain, SD
Stargazer drops 27 vertical feet over 310 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 10° about 180 feet below the top. That's steeper than 3% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 50th steepest of 52 named runs at Ski Mystic Deer Mountain. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 5°, Stargazer gets about 79% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ski Mystic Deer Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th shadiest named run at Ski Mystic Deer Mountain. Its top sits at 6,130 feet.
It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
