Blue Snow King, WY
Saddle drops 197 vertical feet over 1,412 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 620 feet below the top. That's steeper than 20% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 31st steepest of 33 named runs at Snow King. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 8°, Saddle gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snow King does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd sunniest named run at Snow King. Its top sits at 7,930 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.
