Blue Silver Mountain, ID
Skyway Ridge drops 330 vertical feet over 2,532 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 2,490 feet below the top. That's steeper than 23% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 61st steepest of 69 named runs at Silver Mountain. It faces southwest.
Facing southwest at an average 8°, Skyway Ridge gets about 107% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 9th sunniest named run at Silver Mountain. Its top sits at 6,250 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
