Double black Bogus Basin, ID
Tempest drops 1,136 vertical feet over 2,928 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 32° about 1,570 feet below the top. That's steeper than 30% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 9th steepest of 98 named runs at Bogus Basin. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 23°, Tempest gets about 40% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bogus Basin does, December through March. That's shadier than 98% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd shadiest named run at Bogus Basin. Its top sits at 7,380 feet.
Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
