Green Mt Rose, NV
Bronco drops 219 vertical feet over 1,860 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 25° about 1,010 feet below the top. That's steeper than 97% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 36th steepest of 65 named runs at Mt Rose. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 7°, Bronco gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Rose does, December through March. That's shadier than 60% of the runs we've measured, and the 39th shadiest named run at Mt Rose. Its top sits at 8,720 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.
