Black diamond Stowe, VT
Freddie's Chute drops 199 vertical feet over 868 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 520 feet below the top. That's steeper than 35% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 31st steepest of 121 named runs at Stowe. It faces south.
Facing south at an average 13°, Freddie's Chute gets about 133% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stowe does, December through March. That's sunnier than 94% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th sunniest named run at Stowe. Its top sits at 2,420 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.
