Blue Bogus Basin, ID
B-2 drops 300 vertical feet over 976 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 410 feet below the top. That's steeper than 68% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 55th steepest of 98 named runs at Bogus Basin. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 18°, B-2 gets about 61% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bogus Basin does, December through March. That's shadier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 30th shadiest named run at Bogus Basin. Its top sits at 6,600 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.
