Black diamond Powder Mountain, UT
Eureka drops 944 vertical feet over 2,254 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 35° about 310 feet below the top. That's steeper than 83% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 38th steepest of 204 named runs at Powder Mountain. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 25°, Eureka gets about 60% of the winter sun that flat ground at Powder Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the 25th shadiest named run at Powder Mountain. Its top sits at 8,330 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.
