Green Mount Sunapee, NH
Explorer drops 309 vertical feet over 2,165 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 16° about 1,800 feet below the top. That's steeper than 65% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 53rd steepest of 74 named runs at Mount Sunapee. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 8°, Explorer gets about 107% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Sunapee does, December through March. That's sunnier than 78% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th sunniest named run at Mount Sunapee. Its top sits at 1,660 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.
