Blue Winter Park, CO
Sundance drops 844 vertical feet over 3,342 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 1,800 feet below the top. That's steeper than 44% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 109th steepest of 164 named runs at Winter Park. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 15°, Sundance gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Winter Park does, December through March. That's shadier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 47th shadiest named run at Winter Park. Its top sits at 10,690 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.
