Black diamond Park City, UT
Aplande drops 1,079 vertical feet over 2,841 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 29° about 530 feet below the top. That's steeper than 53% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 140th steepest of 334 named runs at Park City. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 22°, Aplande gets about 66% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 56th shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 8,750 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.
