Blue Attitash, NH
Cathedral drops 392 vertical feet over 1,473 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 25° about 600 feet below the top. That's steeper than 74% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 23rd steepest of 70 named runs at Attitash. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 16°, Cathedral gets about 60% of the winter sun that flat ground at Attitash does, December through March. That's shadier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th shadiest named run at Attitash. Its top sits at 1,390 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.
