Green Wolf Creek, CO
Kelly Boyce Trail drops 650 vertical feet over 5,070 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 16° about 2,000 feet below the top. That's steeper than 63% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 107th steepest of 131 named runs at Wolf Creek. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 8°, Kelly Boyce Trail gets about 93% of the winter sun that flat ground at Wolf Creek does, December through March. That's sunnier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 33rd sunniest named run at Wolf Creek. Its top sits at 11,340 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.
