Blue Bromley Mountain, VT
Upper Thruway drops 679 vertical feet over 3,581 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 640 feet below the top. That's steeper than 39% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 28th steepest of 47 named runs at Bromley Mountain. It faces south.
Facing south at an average 11°, Upper Thruway gets about 126% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bromley Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 90% of the runs we've measured, and the 21st sunniest named run at Bromley Mountain. Its top sits at 2,970 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.
