Black diamond Snowbird, UT
White Diamonds drops 962 vertical feet over 3,088 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 33° about 140 feet below the top. That's steeper than 75% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 77th steepest of 151 named runs at Snowbird. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 19°, White Diamonds gets about 105% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowbird does, December through March. That's sunnier than 76% of the runs we've measured, and the 22nd sunniest named run at Snowbird. Its top sits at 10,670 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.
