Double black Schweitzer, ID
Lakeside drops 735 vertical feet over 1,460 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 40° about 1,000 feet below the top. That's steeper than 70% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 7th steepest of 98 named runs at Schweitzer. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 31°, Lakeside gets about 93% of the winter sun that flat ground at Schweitzer does, December through March. That's sunnier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the 53rd sunniest named run at Schweitzer. Its top sits at 6,400 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.
