Blue Mission Ridge, WA
Chilli Frys drops 90 vertical feet over 344 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 80 feet below the top. That's steeper than 48% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 48th steepest of 55 named runs at Mission Ridge. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 15°, Chilli Frys gets about 96% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mission Ridge does, December through March. That's sunnier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 10th sunniest named run at Mission Ridge. Its top sits at 4,750 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.
