Green Arizona Snowbowl, AZ
Santa Fe drops 86 vertical feet over 940 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 900 feet below the top. That's steeper than 95% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 19th steepest of 50 named runs at Arizona Snowbowl. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 5°, Santa Fe gets about 104% of the winter sun that flat ground at Arizona Snowbowl does, December through March. That's sunnier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 18th sunniest named run at Arizona Snowbowl. Its top sits at 9,620 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.
