Denverite drops 1,109 vertical feet over 2,807 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 39° about 980 feet below the top. That's steeper than 66% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 6th steepest of 141 named runs at Copper. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 24°, Denverite gets about 66% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's shadier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 24th shadiest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 12,280 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.
