Double black (off-piste) Snowbasin, UT
Mt. Ogden Chute drops 662 vertical feet over 1,095 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 47° about 200 feet below the top. That's steeper than 94% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 3rd steepest of 127 named runs at Snowbasin. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 38°, Mt. Ogden Chute gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowbasin does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 26th sunniest named run at Snowbasin. Its top sits at 9,450 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.
