Green Spout Springs, OR
Pendleton drops 332 vertical feet over 1,887 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 930 feet below the top. That's steeper than 96% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 8th steepest of 15 named runs at Spout Springs. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 10°, Pendleton gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Spout Springs does, December through March. That's sunnier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 10th sunniest named run at Spout Springs. Its top sits at 5,440 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.
