Main Street drops 778 vertical feet over 6,879 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 2,450 feet below the top. That's steeper than 43% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 45th steepest of 66 named runs at White Pass. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 7°, Main Street gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at White Pass does, December through March. That's shadier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 29th shadiest named run at White Pass. Its top sits at 5,270 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.
