Green Telluride, CO
Village Bypass drops 663 vertical feet over 4,153 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 29° about 1,680 feet below the top. That's steeper than 99% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 80th steepest of 137 named runs at Telluride. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 9°, Village Bypass gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Telluride does, December through March. That's sunnier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 27th sunniest named run at Telluride. Its top sits at 10,760 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
