Black diamond Powder Mountain, UT
Lake View 4 drops 745 vertical feet over 2,224 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 33° about 460 feet below the top. That's steeper than 75% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 48th steepest of 204 named runs at Powder Mountain. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 20°, Lake View 4 gets about 97% of the winter sun that flat ground at Powder Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 74th sunniest named run at Powder Mountain. Its top sits at 8,370 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.
