Black diamond Mt Shasta, CA
Black Fox drops 761 vertical feet over 2,582 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 550 feet below the top. That's steeper than 27% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 11th steepest of 34 named runs at Mt Shasta. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 17°, Black Fox gets about 88% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Shasta does, December through March. That's sunnier than 58% of the runs we've measured, and the 32nd sunniest named run at Mt Shasta. Its top sits at 6,550 feet.
It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
