Fools Paradise drops 886 vertical feet over 2,254 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 33° about 330 feet below the top. That's steeper than 76% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 83rd steepest of 334 named runs at Park City. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 23°, Fools Paradise gets about 62% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 48th shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 9,110 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.
