Upper Tomahawk drops 309 vertical feet over 1,438 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 340 feet below the top. That's steeper than 37% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 63rd steepest of 124 named runs at Okemo. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 13°, Upper Tomahawk gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Okemo does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd shadiest named run at Okemo. Its top sits at 3,020 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.
