Blue White Pass, WA
Out of the Lupin drops 550 vertical feet over 2,905 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 29° about 2,280 feet below the top. That's steeper than 94% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 21st steepest of 66 named runs at White Pass. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 11°, Out of the Lupin gets about 60% of the winter sun that flat ground at White Pass does, December through March. That's shadier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th shadiest named run at White Pass. Its top sits at 6,510 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.
