Blue Snowbird, UT
Bananas, Gadzooks drops 81 vertical feet over 604 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 580 feet below the top. That's steeper than 25% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 139th steepest of 151 named runs at Snowbird. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 8°, Bananas, Gadzooks gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowbird does, December through March. That's sunnier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 32nd sunniest named run at Snowbird. Its top sits at 9,530 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.
