Blue Silver Mountain, ID
Silver Belt drops 732 vertical feet over 3,327 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 2,660 feet below the top. That's steeper than 38% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 57th steepest of 69 named runs at Silver Mountain. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 13°, Silver Belt gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 78% of the runs we've measured, and the 30th shadiest named run at Silver Mountain. Its top sits at 6,240 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.
