Double black Bluewood, WA
Green Giant drops 928 vertical feet over 3,557 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 34° about 600 feet below the top. That's steeper than 39% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 3rd steepest of 37 named runs at Bluewood. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 15°, Green Giant gets about 61% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bluewood does, December through March. That's shadier than 84% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th shadiest named run at Bluewood. Its top sits at 5,660 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.
