Black diamond Great Divide, MT
Show Me drops 689 vertical feet over 2,542 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 25° about 560 feet below the top. That's steeper than 26% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 46th steepest of 123 named runs at Great Divide. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 16°, Show Me gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Great Divide does, December through March. That's shadier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 64th shadiest named run at Great Divide. Its top sits at 6,580 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.
