Green Mt Rose, NV
Witches Brew drops 81 vertical feet over 1,060 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 14° about 1,040 feet below the top. That's steeper than 44% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 59th steepest of 65 named runs at Mt Rose. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 4°, Witches Brew gets about 100% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Rose does, December through March. That's sunnier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th sunniest named run at Mt Rose. Its top sits at 8,420 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.
