Black diamond Red Lodge, MT
Winchester drops 590 vertical feet over 1,794 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 31° about 1,000 feet below the top. That's steeper than 61% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 20th steepest of 54 named runs at Red Lodge. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 19°, Winchester gets about 41% of the winter sun that flat ground at Red Lodge does, December through March. That's shadier than 97% of the runs we've measured, and the 7th shadiest named run at Red Lodge. Its top sits at 8,100 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.
