Blue Loveland, CO
Perfect Bowl drops 264 vertical feet over 1,130 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 870 feet below the top. That's steeper than 85% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 43rd steepest of 81 named runs at Loveland. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 14°, Perfect Bowl gets about 111% of the winter sun that flat ground at Loveland does, December through March. That's sunnier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 17th sunniest named run at Loveland. Its top sits at 11,910 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
