Blue Sun Valley, ID
Lower Limelight drops 323 vertical feet over 946 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 90 feet below the top. That's steeper than 73% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 71st steepest of 99 named runs at Sun Valley. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 20°, Lower Limelight gets about 49% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sun Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 93% of the runs we've measured, and the 26th shadiest named run at Sun Valley. Its top sits at 7,580 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.
