Green Boreal, CA
Baron's Run drops 59 vertical feet over 544 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 12° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 34% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 66th steepest of 71 named runs at Boreal. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 7°, Baron's Run gets about 93% of the winter sun that flat ground at Boreal does, December through March. That's sunnier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the 31st sunniest named run at Boreal. Its top sits at 7,320 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
