Blue Red Lodge, MT
Silver drops 340 vertical feet over 1,495 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 410 feet below the top. That's steeper than 47% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 49th steepest of 54 named runs at Red Lodge. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 13°, Silver gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Red Lodge does, December through March. That's shadier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 40th shadiest named run at Red Lodge. Its top sits at 8,340 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.
