Bypass drops 491 vertical feet over 2,005 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 1,790 feet below the top. That's steeper than 35% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 25th steepest of 92 named runs at Cannon Mountain. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 14°, Bypass gets about 62% of the winter sun that flat ground at Cannon Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 41st shadiest named run at Cannon Mountain. Its top sits at 3,430 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.
