Black diamond Snowbasin, UT
Moonshine Bowl drops 1,125 vertical feet over 3,636 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 36° about 870 feet below the top. That's steeper than 88% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 32nd steepest of 127 named runs at Snowbasin. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 19°, Moonshine Bowl gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowbasin does, December through March. That's sunnier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 43rd sunniest named run at Snowbasin. Its top sits at 8,260 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.
