Blue Revelstoke, BC
Chopper drops 1,692 vertical feet over 8,323 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 30° about 6,850 feet below the top. That's steeper than 96% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 43rd steepest of 80 named runs at Revelstoke. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 12°, Chopper gets about 69% of the winter sun that flat ground at Revelstoke does, December through March. That's shadier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 18th shadiest named run at Revelstoke. Its top sits at 6,390 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.
