Blue Snowbird, UT
Lupine Loop drops 1,211 vertical feet over 8,470 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 25° about 3,170 feet below the top. That's steeper than 75% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 118th steepest of 151 named runs at Snowbird. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 9°, Lupine Loop gets about 117% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowbird does, December through March. That's sunnier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the 15th sunniest named run at Snowbird. Its top sits at 10,740 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.
