Blue Teton Pass, MT
Plenty Coups drops 123 vertical feet over 1,359 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 1,330 feet below the top. That's steeper than 74% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 24th steepest of 38 named runs at Teton Pass. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 5°, Plenty Coups gets about 101% of the winter sun that flat ground at Teton Pass does, December through March. That's sunnier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 23rd sunniest named run at Teton Pass. Its top sits at 6,540 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.
