Blue Ski Granby, CO
Jackpot drops 577 vertical feet over 3,502 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 1,610 feet below the top. That's steeper than 25% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 16th steepest of 42 named runs at Ski Granby. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 10°, Jackpot gets about 94% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ski Granby does, December through March. That's sunnier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th sunniest named run at Ski Granby. Its top sits at 9,100 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.
