Black diamond Powder Mountain, UT
Lake View 2 drops 645 vertical feet over 1,777 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 32° about 130 feet below the top. That's steeper than 71% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 56th steepest of 204 named runs at Powder Mountain. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 21°, Lake View 2 gets about 113% of the winter sun that flat ground at Powder Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 38th sunniest named run at Powder Mountain. Its top sits at 8,480 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
