Blue A-Basin, CO
Noth Fork drops 212 vertical feet over 974 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 570 feet below the top. That's steeper than 45% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 147th steepest of 161 named runs at A-Basin. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 13°, Noth Fork gets about 81% of the winter sun that flat ground at A-Basin does, December through March. That's shadier than 53% of the runs we've measured, and the 105th shadiest named run at A-Basin. Its top sits at 11,160 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.
