Double black Sunlight Mountain, CO
Que Pasa drops 486 vertical feet over 1,031 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 31° about 140 feet below the top. That's steeper than 28% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 21st steepest of 69 named runs at Sunlight Mountain. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 28°, Que Pasa gets about 40% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sunlight Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 97% of the runs we've measured, and the 4th shadiest named run at Sunlight Mountain. Its top sits at 8,880 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.
