Double black Crystal Mountain, WA
Right Angle drops 848 vertical feet over 1,512 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 39° about 1,120 feet below the top. That's steeper than 67% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 35th steepest of 133 named runs at Crystal Mountain. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 34°, Right Angle gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Crystal Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 66th sunniest named run at Crystal Mountain. Its top sits at 6,140 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.
