Black diamond Hoodoo, OR
Grandstand drops 337 vertical feet over 876 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 33° about 270 feet below the top. That's steeper than 74% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 6th steepest of 38 named runs at Hoodoo. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 23°, Grandstand gets about 51% of the winter sun that flat ground at Hoodoo does, December through March. That's shadier than 92% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd shadiest named run at Hoodoo. Its top sits at 5,670 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.
