Green Willamette, OR
Duck Soup drops 754 vertical feet over 5,523 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 14° about 370 feet below the top. That's steeper than 51% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 25th steepest of 30 named runs at Willamette. It faces southwest.
Facing southwest at an average 8°, Duck Soup gets about 111% of the winter sun that flat ground at Willamette does, December through March. That's sunnier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 19th sunniest named run at Willamette. Its top sits at 5,890 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
