Blue Whitefish, MT
Gray Wolf drops 1,177 vertical feet over 8,748 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 24° about 1,810 feet below the top. That's steeper than 67% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 70th steepest of 107 named runs at Whitefish. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 8°, Gray Wolf gets about 74% of the winter sun that flat ground at Whitefish does, December through March. That's shadier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th shadiest named run at Whitefish. Its top sits at 6,770 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.
