Black diamond Alta, UT
Who Cares drops 250 vertical feet over 753 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 29° about 390 feet below the top. That's steeper than 52% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 81st steepest of 117 named runs at Alta. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 20°, Who Cares gets about 103% of the winter sun that flat ground at Alta does, December through March. That's sunnier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 21st sunniest named run at Alta. Its top sits at 8,550 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.
