Double black Whitefish, MT
Gray's Golf Course drops 629 vertical feet over 1,816 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 40° about 330 feet below the top. That's steeper than 71% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 8th steepest of 107 named runs at Whitefish. It faces south.
Facing south at an average 21°, Gray's Golf Course gets about 158% of the winter sun that flat ground at Whitefish does, December through March. That's sunnier than 99% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th sunniest named run at Whitefish. Its top sits at 6,350 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.
