Double black Bogus Basin, ID
Power Line drops 779 vertical feet over 1,858 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 30° about 530 feet below the top. That's steeper than 22% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 22nd steepest of 98 named runs at Bogus Basin. It faces southwest.
Facing southwest at an average 25°, Power Line gets about 144% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bogus Basin does, December through March. That's sunnier than 97% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd sunniest named run at Bogus Basin. Its top sits at 7,400 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.
