Blue Windham Mountain, NY
World Cup drops 800 vertical feet over 3,032 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 760 feet below the top. That's steeper than 83% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 13th steepest of 57 named runs at Windham Mountain. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 15°, World Cup gets about 74% of the winter sun that flat ground at Windham Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the 32nd shadiest named run at Windham Mountain. Its top sits at 3,030 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.
