Scooter drops 490 vertical feet over 2,404 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 2,270 feet below the top. That's steeper than 74% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 115th steepest of 141 named runs at Copper. It faces north.

How well Scooter holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 12°, Scooter gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's shadier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 55th shadiest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 10,530 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.
