RTS drops 611 vertical feet over 1,243 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 41° about 310 feet below the top. That's steeper than 76% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 1st steepest of 30 named runs at Willamette. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 30°, RTS gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Willamette does, December through March. That's shadier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 4th shadiest named run at Willamette. Its top sits at 6,620 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.
