Black diamond Copper, CO
Cabin Chute drops 1,114 vertical feet over 4,684 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 29° about 3,620 feet below the top. That's steeper than 52% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 48th steepest of 141 named runs at Copper. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 14°, Cabin Chute gets about 102% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's sunnier than 73% of the runs we've measured, and the 25th sunniest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 11,660 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.
