Blue Winter Park, CO
Juniper drops 529 vertical feet over 2,451 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 22° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 55% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 98th steepest of 164 named runs at Winter Park. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 13°, Juniper gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Winter Park does, December through March. That's shadier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 56th shadiest named run at Winter Park. Its top sits at 11,490 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.
