Green Boreal, CA
Cowboy drops 162 vertical feet over 880 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 780 feet below the top. That's steeper than 89% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 45th steepest of 71 named runs at Boreal. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 11°, Cowboy gets about 106% of the winter sun that flat ground at Boreal does, December through March. That's sunnier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 22nd sunniest named run at Boreal. Its top sits at 7,200 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
