Blue Diamond Peak, NV
Penguin drops 403 vertical feet over 1,767 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 160 feet below the top. That's steeper than 51% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 23rd steepest of 30 named runs at Diamond Peak. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 13°, Penguin gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Diamond Peak does, December through March. That's shadier than 59% of the runs we've measured, and the 15th shadiest named run at Diamond Peak. Its top sits at 7,310 feet.
It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
