Trillium drops 408 vertical feet over 1,532 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 800 feet below the top. That's steeper than 63% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 28th steepest of 70 named runs at Attitash. It faces north.

How well Trillium holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 16°, Trillium gets about 60% of the winter sun that flat ground at Attitash does, December through March. That's shadier than 84% of the runs we've measured, and the 15th shadiest named run at Attitash. Its top sits at 1,130 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.
