Black diamond Mount Sunapee, NH
Lynx drops 933 vertical feet over 3,237 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 510 feet below the top. That's steeper than 30% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 6th steepest of 74 named runs at Mount Sunapee. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 17°, Lynx gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Sunapee does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 17th shadiest named run at Mount Sunapee. Its top sits at 2,240 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.
