Black diamond Warner Canyon, OR
Kangaroo drops 405 vertical feet over 1,472 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 450 feet below the top. That's steeper than 17% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 11th steepest of 21 named runs at Warner Canyon. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 16°, Kangaroo gets about 49% of the winter sun that flat ground at Warner Canyon does, December through March. That's shadier than 94% of the runs we've measured, and the shadiest named run at Warner Canyon. Its top sits at 6,280 feet.
Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
