Blue Pebble Creek, ID
Rock Garden drops 392 vertical feet over 1,256 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 700 feet below the top. That's steeper than 71% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 35th steepest of 46 named runs at Pebble Creek. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 18°, Rock Garden gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Pebble Creek does, December through March. That's shadier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 21st shadiest named run at Pebble Creek. Its top sits at 7,070 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.
