Blue Powder Mountain, UT
Thimbleberry drops 677 vertical feet over 3,218 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 22° about 1,820 feet below the top. That's steeper than 53% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 164th steepest of 204 named runs at Powder Mountain. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 12°, Thimbleberry gets about 74% of the winter sun that flat ground at Powder Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the 71st shadiest named run at Powder Mountain. Its top sits at 8,670 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.
