Black diamond Mt Spokane, WA
Jump Hill drops 252 vertical feet over 629 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 39° about 530 feet below the top. That's steeper than 94% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 1st steepest of 57 named runs at Mt Spokane. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 24°, Jump Hill gets about 145% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Spokane does, December through March. That's sunnier than 97% of the runs we've measured, and the sunniest named run at Mt Spokane. Its top sits at 4,640 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.
