Green Sandia Peak, NM
Over-Easy drops 17 vertical feet over 172 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 11° about 30 feet below the top. That's steeper than 24% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 55th steepest of 59 named runs at Sandia Peak. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 6°, Over-Easy gets about 94% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sandia Peak does, December through March. That's sunnier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th sunniest named run at Sandia Peak. Its top sits at 8,700 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
