Green Burke Mountain, VT
High Meadows Pass drops 442 vertical feet over 3,881 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 15° about 130 feet below the top. That's steeper than 59% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 52nd steepest of 56 named runs at Burke Mountain. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 7°, High Meadows Pass gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Burke Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 4th sunniest named run at Burke Mountain. Its top sits at 1,660 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.
