Double black Telluride, CO
Sully's drops 798 vertical feet over 1,823 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 39° about 410 feet below the top. That's steeper than 64% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 33rd steepest of 137 named runs at Telluride. It faces southwest.
Facing southwest at an average 26°, Sully's gets about 125% of the winter sun that flat ground at Telluride does, December through March. That's sunnier than 90% of the runs we've measured, and the sunniest named run at Telluride. Its top sits at 11,690 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
