Blue Heavenly, CA
Skyline Trail drops 419 vertical feet over 5,300 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 5,260 feet below the top. That's steeper than 22% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 107th steepest of 124 named runs at Heavenly. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 5°, Skyline Trail gets about 86% of the winter sun that flat ground at Heavenly does, December through March. That's sunnier than 54% of the runs we've measured, and the 43rd sunniest named run at Heavenly. Its top sits at 9,970 feet.
It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
