Double black Solitude, UT
Navarone drops 800 vertical feet over 1,820 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 44° about 470 feet below the top. That's steeper than 87% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 10th steepest of 75 named runs at Solitude. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 27°, Navarone gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Solitude does, December through March. That's sunnier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th sunniest named run at Solitude. Its top sits at 9,350 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
