Black diamond Wolf Creek, CO
Shutty's Hollows drops 381 vertical feet over 1,656 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 20 feet below the top. That's steeper than 39% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 72nd steepest of 131 named runs at Wolf Creek. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 13°, Shutty's Hollows gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Wolf Creek does, December through March. That's sunnier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 34th sunniest named run at Wolf Creek. Its top sits at 11,500 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.
