Black diamond Kissing Bridge, NY
Woods Trail drops 452 vertical feet over 3,246 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 1,330 feet below the top. That's steeper than 3% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 20th steepest of 35 named runs at Kissing Bridge. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 8°, Woods Trail gets about 93% of the winter sun that flat ground at Kissing Bridge does, December through March. That's sunnier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th sunniest named run at Kissing Bridge. Its top sits at 1,710 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.
