Green Breckenridge, CO
Silverthorne drops 906 vertical feet over 7,792 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 16° about 550 feet below the top. That's steeper than 62% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 188th steepest of 207 named runs at Breckenridge. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 7°, Silverthorne gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Breckenridge does, December through March. That's sunnier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 92nd sunniest named run at Breckenridge. Its top sits at 10,540 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.
