Blue Burke Mountain, VT
Deer Run drops 1,460 vertical feet over 10,280 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 9,500 feet below the top. That's steeper than 29% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 47th steepest of 56 named runs at Burke Mountain. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 8°, Deer Run gets about 70% of the winter sun that flat ground at Burke Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 38th shadiest named run at Burke Mountain. Its top sits at 3,190 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.
