Blue Stratton, VT
East Byrnes Side Park drops 336 vertical feet over 1,754 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 120 feet below the top. That's steeper than 38% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 49th steepest of 112 named runs at Stratton. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 11°, East Byrnes Side Park gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stratton does, December through March. That's shadier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 46th shadiest named run at Stratton. Its top sits at 2,500 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.
