Blue Burke Mountain, VT
Graham Slam drops 625 vertical feet over 1,995 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 770 feet below the top. That's steeper than 85% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 16th steepest of 56 named runs at Burke Mountain. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 18°, Graham Slam gets about 61% of the winter sun that flat ground at Burke Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 23rd shadiest named run at Burke Mountain. Its top sits at 2,300 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.
