The Drop drops 361 vertical feet over 1,035 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 350 feet below the top. That's steeper than 37% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 169th steepest of 334 named runs at Park City. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 21°, The Drop gets about 57% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 87% of the runs we've measured, and the 30th shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 7,920 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.
