Green 49 Degrees North, WA
Huckleberry Ridge drops 512 vertical feet over 3,674 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 14° about 2,020 feet below the top. That's steeper than 51% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 74th steepest of 83 named runs at 49 Degrees North. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 8°, Huckleberry Ridge gets about 100% of the winter sun that flat ground at 49 Degrees North does, December through March. That's sunnier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th sunniest named run at 49 Degrees North. Its top sits at 5,570 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.
