Crawford's Cutoff drops 79 vertical feet over 513 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 12° about 430 feet below the top. That's steeper than 1% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 88th steepest of 95 named runs at Bretton Woods. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 9°, Crawford's Cutoff gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bretton Woods does, December through March. That's shadier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 58th shadiest named run at Bretton Woods. Its top sits at 1,960 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.
