Blue Mount Snow, VT
Cascade drops 663 vertical feet over 2,823 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 2,010 feet below the top. That's steeper than 63% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 28th steepest of 86 named runs at Mount Snow. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 14°, Cascade gets about 75% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Snow does, December through March. That's shadier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 17th shadiest named run at Mount Snow. Its top sits at 3,580 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.
