Black diamond Jackson Hole, WY
Riverton Bowl drops 691 vertical feet over 1,397 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 35° about 1,000 feet below the top. That's steeper than 85% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 43rd steepest of 126 named runs at Jackson Hole. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 30°, Riverton Bowl gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Jackson Hole does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 122nd sunniest named run at Jackson Hole. Its top sits at 8,620 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
