Black diamond Copper, CO
Summit Stash drops 379 vertical feet over 1,308 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 660 feet below the top. That's steeper than 33% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 63rd steepest of 141 named runs at Copper. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 17°, Summit Stash gets about 60% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's shadier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the 10th shadiest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 12,210 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.
