Double black Wolf Creek, CO
ATM drops 483 vertical feet over 1,446 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 39° about 320 feet below the top. That's steeper than 64% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 26th steepest of 131 named runs at Wolf Creek. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 20°, ATM gets about 99% of the winter sun that flat ground at Wolf Creek does, December through March. That's sunnier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 20th sunniest named run at Wolf Creek. Its top sits at 11,010 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.
