Green Mission Ridge, WA
Compromise drops 152 vertical feet over 1,486 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 28° about 960 feet below the top. That's steeper than 99% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 29th steepest of 55 named runs at Mission Ridge. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 7°, Compromise gets about 45% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mission Ridge does, December through March. That's shadier than 96% of the runs we've measured, and the 9th shadiest named run at Mission Ridge. Its top sits at 4,970 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.
