Black diamond Angel Fire, NM
Hari Kari drops 377 vertical feet over 823 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 37° about 260 feet below the top. That's steeper than 90% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 2nd steepest of 88 named runs at Angel Fire. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 28°, Hari Kari gets about 94% of the winter sun that flat ground at Angel Fire does, December through March. That's sunnier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th sunniest named run at Angel Fire. Its top sits at 10,430 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.
