Blue Grand Targhee, WY
Sitting Bull drops 704 vertical feet over 2,709 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 620 feet below the top. That's steeper than 46% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 65th steepest of 83 named runs at Grand Targhee. It faces southwest.
Facing southwest at an average 15°, Sitting Bull gets about 126% of the winter sun that flat ground at Grand Targhee does, December through March. That's sunnier than 90% of the runs we've measured, and the 20th sunniest named run at Grand Targhee. Its top sits at 9,730 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
