Blue Big Powderhorn, MI
Firecracker drops 40 vertical feet over 170 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 19° about 70 feet below the top. That's steeper than 30% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 21st steepest of 45 named runs at Big Powderhorn. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 14°, Firecracker gets about 88% of the winter sun that flat ground at Big Powderhorn does, December through March. That's sunnier than 58% of the runs we've measured, and the 7th sunniest named run at Big Powderhorn. Its top sits at 1,530 feet.
It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
