Green Palisades Tahoe, CA
Easy Slider drops 163 vertical feet over 1,598 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 10° about 1,290 feet below the top. That's steeper than 23% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 113th steepest of 115 named runs at Palisades Tahoe. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 6°, Easy Slider gets about 103% of the winter sun that flat ground at Palisades Tahoe does, December through March. That's sunnier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th sunniest named run at Palisades Tahoe. Its top sits at 7,930 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.
