Double black Park City, UT
Murdock's Bowl drops 656 vertical feet over 1,262 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 38° about 340 feet below the top. That's steeper than 62% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 30th steepest of 334 named runs at Park City. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 32°, Murdock's Bowl gets about 103% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's sunnier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 67th sunniest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 9,340 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
