Witch Way drops 81 vertical feet over 495 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 410 feet below the top. That's steeper than 23% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 89th steepest of 126 named runs at Sunday River. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 10°, Witch Way gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sunday River does, December through March. That's shadier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 55th shadiest named run at Sunday River. Its top sits at 2,720 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.
