Black diamond Pebble Creek, ID
South Bowl Glade drops 536 vertical feet over 1,664 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 33° about 800 feet below the top. That's steeper than 75% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 5th steepest of 46 named runs at Pebble Creek. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 19°, South Bowl Glade gets about 105% of the winter sun that flat ground at Pebble Creek does, December through March. That's sunnier than 76% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th sunniest named run at Pebble Creek. Its top sits at 8,240 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.
