Blue Copper, CO
Slot Car Track drops 236 vertical feet over 1,792 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 27% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 112th steepest of 141 named runs at Copper. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 8°, Slot Car Track gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's sunnier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 32nd sunniest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 11,540 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.
