Home Run drops 51 vertical feet over 1,045 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 9° about 1,020 feet below the top. That's steeper than 13% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 152nd steepest of 154 named runs at Killington. It faces north.

How well Home Run holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 3°, Home Run gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Killington does, December through March. That's shadier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 54th shadiest named run at Killington. Its top sits at 3,860 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.
