Blue Kelly Canyon, ID
Drop Out Cut Off drops 233 vertical feet over 1,093 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 39% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 33rd steepest of 49 named runs at Kelly Canyon. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 12°, Drop Out Cut Off gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Kelly Canyon does, December through March. That's shadier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 32nd shadiest named run at Kelly Canyon. Its top sits at 6,360 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.
