Black diamond Diamond Peak, NV
O. God drops 502 vertical feet over 1,235 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 30° about 560 feet below the top. That's steeper than 60% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 1st steepest of 30 named runs at Diamond Peak. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 24°, O. God gets about 62% of the winter sun that flat ground at Diamond Peak does, December through March. That's shadier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 7th shadiest named run at Diamond Peak. Its top sits at 7,250 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.
