Blue Stevens Pass, WA
Slow Poke drops 142 vertical feet over 772 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 350 feet below the top. That's steeper than 74% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 52nd steepest of 70 named runs at Stevens Pass. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 11°, Slow Poke gets about 99% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stevens Pass does, December through March. That's sunnier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th sunniest named run at Stevens Pass. Its top sits at 4,620 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.
