Blue Hoodoo, OR
Powder Valley 2 drops 228 vertical feet over 721 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 460 feet below the top. That's steeper than 71% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 26th steepest of 38 named runs at Hoodoo. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 19°, Powder Valley 2 gets about 113% of the winter sun that flat ground at Hoodoo does, December through March. That's sunnier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th sunniest named run at Hoodoo. Its top sits at 4,960 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
