Blue Mt Lemmon, AZ
Heidi's Meadow drops 397 vertical feet over 1,350 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 22° about 1,000 feet below the top. That's steeper than 55% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 12th steepest of 21 named runs at Mt Lemmon. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 17°, Heidi's Meadow gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Lemmon does, December through March. That's shadier than 60% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th shadiest named run at Mt Lemmon. Its top sits at 8,790 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.
