Green Sunlight Mountain, CO
Ute drops 1,700 vertical feet over 11,124 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 1,400 feet below the top. That's steeper than 90% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 54th steepest of 69 named runs at Sunlight Mountain. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 9°, Ute gets about 83% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sunlight Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 50% of the runs we've measured, and the 61st shadiest named run at Sunlight Mountain. Its top sits at 9,850 feet.
It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
