Double black Killington, VT
Space Walk drops 264 vertical feet over 1,974 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 6% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 87th steepest of 154 named runs at Killington. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 8°, Space Walk gets about 105% of the winter sun that flat ground at Killington does, December through March. That's sunnier than 76% of the runs we've measured, and the 46th sunniest named run at Killington. Its top sits at 2,440 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.
