Double black A-Basin, CO
Turbo drops 437 vertical feet over 939 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 37° about 50 feet below the top. That's steeper than 56% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 52nd steepest of 161 named runs at A-Basin. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 28°, Turbo gets about 46% of the winter sun that flat ground at A-Basin does, December through March. That's shadier than 95% of the runs we've measured, and the 23rd shadiest named run at A-Basin. Its top sits at 11,390 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.
