Black diamond Park City, UT
Sidewinder drops 874 vertical feet over 3,297 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 1,420 feet below the top. That's steeper than 36% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 179th steepest of 334 named runs at Park City. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 16°, Sidewinder gets about 70% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 71st shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 8,940 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.
