Green Afton Alps, MN
Dolly's Dip drops 40 vertical feet over 692 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 10° about 680 feet below the top. That's steeper than 22% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 35th steepest of 39 named runs at Afton Alps. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 4°, Dolly's Dip gets about 99% of the winter sun that flat ground at Afton Alps does, December through March. That's sunnier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 18th sunniest named run at Afton Alps. Its top sits at 920 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.
