Green Seven Springs, PA
Alpine Pass Trail drops 185 vertical feet over 1,334 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 1,040 feet below the top. That's steeper than 80% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 31st steepest of 47 named runs at Seven Springs. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 8°, Alpine Pass Trail gets about 100% of the winter sun that flat ground at Seven Springs does, December through March. That's sunnier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th sunniest named run at Seven Springs. Its top sits at 2,700 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.
