Double black Sun Valley, ID
Little Scorpion drops 1,293 vertical feet over 4,576 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 32° about 2,070 feet below the top. That's steeper than 32% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 14th steepest of 99 named runs at Sun Valley. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 17°, Little Scorpion gets about 86% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sun Valley does, December through March. That's sunnier than 54% of the runs we've measured, and the 31st sunniest named run at Sun Valley. Its top sits at 7,310 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.
