Black diamond Snowbasin, UT
Parson's drops 486 vertical feet over 1,640 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 680 feet below the top. That's steeper than 20% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 93rd steepest of 127 named runs at Snowbasin. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 17°, Parson's gets about 90% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowbasin does, December through March. That's sunnier than 60% of the runs we've measured, and the 50th sunniest named run at Snowbasin. Its top sits at 7,700 feet.
It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
