Blue Mount Sunapee, NH
Pipeline drops 400 vertical feet over 1,820 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 620 feet below the top. That's steeper than 23% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 48th steepest of 74 named runs at Mount Sunapee. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 13°, Pipeline gets about 74% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Sunapee does, December through March. That's shadier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 30th shadiest named run at Mount Sunapee. Its top sits at 1,660 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.
