Blue Boreal, CA
Split Rock drops 223 vertical feet over 923 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 560 feet below the top. That's steeper than 48% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 43rd steepest of 71 named runs at Boreal. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 14°, Split Rock gets about 62% of the winter sun that flat ground at Boreal does, December through March. That's shadier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th shadiest named run at Boreal. Its top sits at 7,570 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.
