ski slopes

Downhill snow paths

Ski slopes are snow-covered hillsides prepared for downhill skiing, typically at a resort.

Slopes are graded by difficulty—green for beginners, blue for intermediate, black for advanced.

The term often refers to the resort itself: We're heading to the ski slopes this weekend.

The ski slopes were packed during spring break.
