Green Silver Mountain, ID
Ross Run drops 306 vertical feet over 1,699 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 15° about 690 feet below the top. That's steeper than 58% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 63rd steepest of 69 named runs at Silver Mountain. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 10°, Ross Run gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 34th shadiest named run at Silver Mountain. Its top sits at 5,650 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.
