Blue Copper, CO
Timber Ridge drops 558 vertical feet over 2,702 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 1,120 feet below the top. That's steeper than 85% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 66th steepest of 141 named runs at Copper. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 12°, Timber Ridge gets about 69% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's shadier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 45th shadiest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 12,140 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.
