Blue Stowe, VT
Dalton drops 173 vertical feet over 757 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 19° about 70 feet below the top. That's steeper than 33% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 87th steepest of 121 named runs at Stowe. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 13°, Dalton gets about 62% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stowe does, December through March. That's shadier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 19th shadiest named run at Stowe. Its top sits at 1,820 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.
