Mozart drops 1,168 vertical feet over 4,252 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 100 feet below the top. That's steeper than 71% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 72nd steepest of 140 named runs at Keystone. It faces south.

How well Mozart holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing south at an average 16°, Mozart gets about 134% of the winter sun that flat ground at Keystone does, December through March. That's sunnier than 94% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th sunniest named run at Keystone. Its top sits at 11,620 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.
