Green Big Sky, MT
Springville drops 60 vertical feet over 289 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 16° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 60% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 267th steepest of 290 named runs at Big Sky. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 12°, Springville gets about 74% of the winter sun that flat ground at Big Sky does, December through March. That's shadier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 103rd shadiest named run at Big Sky. Its top sits at 7,550 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.
