Blue Cranmore Mountain, NH
Lower Arlberg drops 408 vertical feet over 1,441 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 710 feet below the top. That's steeper than 44% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 22nd steepest of 54 named runs at Cranmore Mountain. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 17°, Lower Arlberg gets about 96% of the winter sun that flat ground at Cranmore Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 27th sunniest named run at Cranmore Mountain. Its top sits at 1,080 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.
