Green Lost Trail, MT
Candy Stick drops 759 vertical feet over 6,487 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 4,330 feet below the top. That's steeper than 80% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 51st steepest of 67 named runs at Lost Trail. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 7°, Candy Stick gets about 100% of the winter sun that flat ground at Lost Trail does, December through March. That's sunnier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 35th sunniest named run at Lost Trail. Its top sits at 7,190 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.
