Blue Pebble Creek, ID
Headed South drops 116 vertical feet over 1,549 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 1,520 feet below the top. That's steeper than 21% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 40th steepest of 46 named runs at Pebble Creek. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 5°, Headed South gets about 106% of the winter sun that flat ground at Pebble Creek does, December through March. That's sunnier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th sunniest named run at Pebble Creek. Its top sits at 7,810 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.
