Blue Grand Targhee, WY
Funnel drops 216 vertical feet over 1,476 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 280 feet below the top. That's steeper than 20% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 72nd steepest of 83 named runs at Grand Targhee. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 8°, Funnel gets about 69% of the winter sun that flat ground at Grand Targhee does, December through March. That's shadier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th shadiest named run at Grand Targhee. Its top sits at 8,530 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.
