Blue Red Lodge, MT
Cariboo drops 293 vertical feet over 1,124 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 640 feet below the top. That's steeper than 66% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 41st steepest of 54 named runs at Red Lodge. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 15°, Cariboo gets about 57% of the winter sun that flat ground at Red Lodge does, December through March. That's shadier than 88% of the runs we've measured, and the 21st shadiest named run at Red Lodge. Its top sits at 8,250 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.
