Blue Waterville Valley, NH
Main Street drops 95 vertical feet over 601 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 90 feet below the top. That's steeper than 24% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 50th steepest of 65 named runs at Waterville Valley. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 9°, Main Street gets about 100% of the winter sun that flat ground at Waterville Valley does, December through March. That's sunnier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th sunniest named run at Waterville Valley. Its top sits at 3,540 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.
