Green Kissing Bridge, NY
Snowball drops 462 vertical feet over 3,067 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 1,330 feet below the top. That's steeper than 75% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 15th steepest of 35 named runs at Kissing Bridge. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 9°, Snowball gets about 96% of the winter sun that flat ground at Kissing Bridge does, December through March. That's sunnier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th sunniest named run at Kissing Bridge. Its top sits at 1,720 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.
