Hummingbird drops 19 vertical feet over 381 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 5° about 370 feet below the top. That's steeper than 4% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 36th steepest of 36 named runs at Eagle Point. It faces east.

How well Hummingbird holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 3°, Hummingbird gets about 102% of the winter sun that flat ground at Eagle Point does, December through March. That's sunnier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 24th sunniest named run at Eagle Point. Its top sits at 10,330 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.
