Double black Copper, CO
Double Zero drops 376 vertical feet over 1,290 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 31° about 750 feet below the top. That's steeper than 30% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 37th steepest of 141 named runs at Copper. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 17°, Double Zero gets about 123% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's sunnier than 89% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th sunniest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 11,970 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
