Green Mount Sunapee, NH
North Peak Pass drops 38 vertical feet over 1,316 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 7° about 590 feet below the top. That's steeper than 8% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 73rd steepest of 74 named runs at Mount Sunapee. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 2°, North Peak Pass gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Sunapee does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 10th sunniest named run at Mount Sunapee. Its top sits at 2,280 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.
