Black diamond Schweitzer, ID
Siberia Runout drops 214 vertical feet over 1,004 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 400 feet below the top. That's steeper than 31% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 61st steepest of 98 named runs at Schweitzer. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 13°, Siberia Runout gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Schweitzer does, December through March. That's sunnier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 55th sunniest named run at Schweitzer. Its top sits at 5,550 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.
