Double black White Pass, WA
Execution drops 388 vertical feet over 755 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 40° about 260 feet below the top. That's steeper than 72% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 3rd steepest of 66 named runs at White Pass. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 31°, Execution gets about 33% of the winter sun that flat ground at White Pass does, December through March. That's shadier than 99% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd shadiest named run at White Pass. Its top sits at 5,430 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.
