Green Sunlight Mountain, CO
Tercero drops 115 vertical feet over 531 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 15° about 70 feet below the top. That's steeper than 53% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 65th steepest of 69 named runs at Sunlight Mountain. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 13°, Tercero gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sunlight Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 41st shadiest named run at Sunlight Mountain. Its top sits at 8,570 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.
