Black diamond Okemo, VT
Upper World Cup drops 761 vertical feet over 2,845 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 1,190 feet below the top. That's steeper than 14% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 34th steepest of 124 named runs at Okemo. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 16°, Upper World Cup gets about 115% of the winter sun that flat ground at Okemo does, December through March. That's sunnier than 84% of the runs we've measured, and the 28th sunniest named run at Okemo. Its top sits at 3,040 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.
