Green Copper, CO
Log Chute drops 138 vertical feet over 1,060 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 13° about 850 feet below the top. That's steeper than 39% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 136th steepest of 141 named runs at Copper. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 8°, Log Chute gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's sunnier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 33rd sunniest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 10,960 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.
