Blue Snowbird, UT
Bluebell drops 363 vertical feet over 1,477 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 870 feet below the top. That's steeper than 69% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 120th steepest of 151 named runs at Snowbird. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 14°, Bluebell gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowbird does, December through March. That's shadier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 72nd shadiest named run at Snowbird. Its top sits at 8,310 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.
