Double black Snowmass, CO
Buckskin drops 800 vertical feet over 2,755 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 41° about 630 feet below the top. That's steeper than 74% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 21st steepest of 126 named runs at Snowmass. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 17°, Buckskin gets about 80% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowmass does, December through March. That's shadier than 55% of the runs we've measured, and the 103rd shadiest named run at Snowmass. Its top sits at 10,760 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.
