Double black Loveland, CO
Zoom drops 567 vertical feet over 1,324 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 40° about 580 feet below the top. That's steeper than 71% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 2nd steepest of 81 named runs at Loveland. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 26°, Zoom gets about 44% of the winter sun that flat ground at Loveland does, December through March. That's shadier than 96% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd shadiest named run at Loveland. Its top sits at 11,510 feet.
Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
