Black diamond Soldier Mountain, ID
Easter drops 342 vertical feet over 972 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 30° about 70 feet below the top. That's steeper than 56% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 3rd steepest of 41 named runs at Soldier Mountain. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 21°, Easter gets about 125% of the winter sun that flat ground at Soldier Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 90% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th sunniest named run at Soldier Mountain. Its top sits at 6,310 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
