Green Mammoth, CA
Spring Canyon drops 200 vertical feet over 1,437 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 320 feet below the top. That's steeper than 73% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 125th steepest of 151 named runs at Mammoth. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 8°, Spring Canyon gets about 95% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mammoth does, December through March. That's sunnier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 29th sunniest named run at Mammoth. Its top sits at 8,800 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.
