Blue Copper, CO
Home Run drops 85 vertical feet over 472 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 22° about 150 feet below the top. That's steeper than 55% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 90th steepest of 141 named runs at Copper. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 11°, Home Run gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's shadier than 60% of the runs we've measured, and the 77th shadiest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 9,790 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.
