Blue Pine Mountain, MI
Off The Grid drops 53 vertical feet over 476 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 10° about 320 feet below the top. That's steeper than 3% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 29th steepest of 33 named runs at Pine Mountain. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 6°, Off The Grid gets about 72% of the winter sun that flat ground at Pine Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 68% of the runs we've measured, and the 9th shadiest named run at Pine Mountain. Its top sits at 1,440 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.
