Green Loveland, CO
Fire Bowl drops 421 vertical feet over 2,437 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 16° about 1,060 feet below the top. That's steeper than 65% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 73rd steepest of 81 named runs at Loveland. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 10°, Fire Bowl gets about 94% of the winter sun that flat ground at Loveland does, December through March. That's sunnier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 36th sunniest named run at Loveland. Its top sits at 12,010 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.
