Review drops 323 vertical feet over 742 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 40° about 230 feet below the top. That's steeper than 72% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 26th steepest of 137 named runs at Telluride. It faces north.

How well Review holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 27°, Review gets about 45% of the winter sun that flat ground at Telluride does, December through March. That's shadier than 95% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th shadiest named run at Telluride. Its top sits at 11,780 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.
