Black diamond Mountain High, CA
Hunts drops 198 vertical feet over 531 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 180 feet below the top. That's steeper than 31% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 13th steepest of 37 named runs at Mountain High. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 22°, Hunts gets about 56% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mountain High does, December through March. That's shadier than 88% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd shadiest named run at Mountain High. Its top sits at 7,600 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.
