Black diamond Killington, VT
Highline Race Trail drops 718 vertical feet over 2,533 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 30° about 1,220 feet below the top. That's steeper than 58% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 24th steepest of 154 named runs at Killington. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 17°, Highline Race Trail gets about 108% of the winter sun that flat ground at Killington does, December through March. That's sunnier than 79% of the runs we've measured, and the 37th sunniest named run at Killington. Its top sits at 3,240 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
