Black diamond Winter Park, CO
Eagle Wind drops 484 vertical feet over 2,430 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 25° about 1,260 feet below the top. That's steeper than 24% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 82nd steepest of 164 named runs at Winter Park. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 12°, Eagle Wind gets about 94% of the winter sun that flat ground at Winter Park does, December through March. That's sunnier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 46th sunniest named run at Winter Park. Its top sits at 10,800 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.
