Black diamond Mt Ashland, OR
Ado drops 616 vertical feet over 1,993 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 33° about 1,670 feet below the top. That's steeper than 75% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 11th steepest of 40 named runs at Mt Ashland. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 18°, Ado gets about 95% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Ashland does, December through March. That's sunnier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd sunniest named run at Mt Ashland. Its top sits at 7,310 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.
