Blue Mount Snow, VT
South Bowl drops 1,092 vertical feet over 4,972 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 25° about 510 feet below the top. That's steeper than 76% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 18th steepest of 86 named runs at Mount Snow. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 13°, South Bowl gets about 100% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Snow does, December through March. That's sunnier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 22nd sunniest named run at Mount Snow. Its top sits at 3,540 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.
