Blue Gunstock, NH
Derringer drops 246 vertical feet over 1,311 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 14° about 620 feet below the top. That's steeper than 11% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 39th steepest of 51 named runs at Gunstock. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 11°, Derringer gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Gunstock does, December through March. That's sunnier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th sunniest named run at Gunstock. Its top sits at 1,590 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.
