Green Mt Spokane, WA
Jim's Gem drops 659 vertical feet over 2,773 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 540 feet below the top. That's steeper than 90% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 39th steepest of 57 named runs at Mt Spokane. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 14°, Jim's Gem gets about 95% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Spokane does, December through March. That's sunnier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 28th sunniest named run at Mt Spokane. Its top sits at 5,660 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.
