Green Boreal, CA
Powder Puff drops 184 vertical feet over 857 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 470 feet below the top. That's steeper than 98% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 18th steepest of 71 named runs at Boreal. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 13°, Powder Puff gets about 112% of the winter sun that flat ground at Boreal does, December through March. That's sunnier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th sunniest named run at Boreal. Its top sits at 7,330 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.
