Blue Park City, UT
Raptor Way drops 513 vertical feet over 2,789 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 31° about 30 feet below the top. That's steeper than 98% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 106th steepest of 334 named runs at Park City. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 11°, Raptor Way gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's sunnier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 112th sunniest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 7,510 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.
