Green Stratton, VT
Lower Middlebrook drops 879 vertical feet over 5,179 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 580 feet below the top. That's steeper than 80% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 58th steepest of 112 named runs at Stratton. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 10°, Lower Middlebrook gets about 125% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stratton does, December through March. That's sunnier than 90% of the runs we've measured, and the sunniest named run at Stratton. Its top sits at 3,090 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.
