Black diamond Red Lodge, MT
3rd Street drops 222 vertical feet over 663 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 610 feet below the top. That's steeper than 35% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 36th steepest of 54 named runs at Red Lodge. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 20°, 3rd Street gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Red Lodge does, December through March. That's shadier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 38th shadiest named run at Red Lodge. Its top sits at 9,160 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.
