Blue Copper, CO
Collage drops 1,968 vertical feet over 8,258 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 25° about 4,930 feet below the top. That's steeper than 75% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 76th steepest of 141 named runs at Copper. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 14°, Collage gets about 69% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's shadier than 73% of the runs we've measured, and the 42nd shadiest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 12,020 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.
