Blue Cannon Mountain, NH
North Slope drops 362 vertical feet over 1,653 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 340 feet below the top. That's steeper than 40% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 62nd steepest of 92 named runs at Cannon Mountain. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 13°, North Slope gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Cannon Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 79% of the runs we've measured, and the 52nd shadiest named run at Cannon Mountain. Its top sits at 2,200 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.
