Green Pico Mountain, VT
Bonanza 2 drops 71 vertical feet over 608 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 10° about 260 feet below the top. That's steeper than 17% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 56th steepest of 58 named runs at Pico Mountain. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 7°, Bonanza 2 gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Pico Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th sunniest named run at Pico Mountain. Its top sits at 2,070 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.
