Blue Boyne Mountain, MI
Bobsled drops 80 vertical feet over 819 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 14° about 790 feet below the top. That's steeper than 10% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 40th steepest of 61 named runs at Boyne Mountain. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 6°, Bobsled gets about 72% of the winter sun that flat ground at Boyne Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th shadiest named run at Boyne Mountain. Its top sits at 1,150 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.
