Blue Hoodoo, OR
Midway drops 468 vertical feet over 1,773 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 28° about 940 feet below the top. That's steeper than 91% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 16th steepest of 38 named runs at Hoodoo. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 15°, Midway gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Hoodoo does, December through March. That's sunnier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 19th sunniest named run at Hoodoo. Its top sits at 5,200 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.
