Black diamond Brundage, ID
Lift Line drops 1,491 vertical feet over 5,232 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 28° about 3,880 feet below the top. That's steeper than 43% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 20th steepest of 76 named runs at Brundage. It faces southwest.
Facing southwest at an average 17°, Lift Line gets about 137% of the winter sun that flat ground at Brundage does, December through March. That's sunnier than 95% of the runs we've measured, and the 7th sunniest named run at Brundage. Its top sits at 7,570 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.
