Double black Aspen Mountain, CO
Norway drops 370 vertical feet over 908 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 31° about 560 feet below the top. That's steeper than 26% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 83rd steepest of 139 named runs at Aspen Mountain. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 24°, Norway gets about 67% of the winter sun that flat ground at Aspen Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 52nd shadiest named run at Aspen Mountain. Its top sits at 8,410 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.
