Green Okemo, VT
Rising Star drops 115 vertical feet over 596 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 470 feet below the top. That's steeper than 92% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 49th steepest of 124 named runs at Okemo. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 13°, Rising Star gets about 106% of the winter sun that flat ground at Okemo does, December through March. That's sunnier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 53rd sunniest named run at Okemo. Its top sits at 1,850 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
