Black diamond Park City, UT
Kestrel drops 901 vertical feet over 2,384 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 29° about 770 feet below the top. That's steeper than 50% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 145th steepest of 334 named runs at Park City. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 22°, Kestrel gets about 67% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 63rd shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 8,550 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.
