Blue Mt Ashland, OR
Dan's Slot drops 240 vertical feet over 755 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 280 feet below the top. That's steeper than 61% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 32nd steepest of 40 named runs at Mt Ashland. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 19°, Dan's Slot gets about 59% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Ashland does, December through March. That's shadier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th shadiest named run at Mt Ashland. Its top sits at 6,670 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.
