Black diamond Great Divide, MT
Hi Voltage drops 442 vertical feet over 1,346 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 370 feet below the top. That's steeper than 21% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 62nd steepest of 123 named runs at Great Divide. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 19°, Hi Voltage gets about 57% of the winter sun that flat ground at Great Divide does, December through March. That's shadier than 88% of the runs we've measured, and the 41st shadiest named run at Great Divide. Its top sits at 6,460 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.
