Does it mean the side where the slope is going UP toward north? Or is it the other way around... Just trying to determine what side of a Hill would be what defines "north facing slopes"

I'm pretty sure he left out the word and. It should read like this...
If you're standing on a slope looking down hill and you're facing north.
Note I changed your to you're, and put down hill vice just down, but it makes sense, give him a break. I've been known to eff up on a keyboard my own self.

Smossy, don't worry, we all just love giving people a hard time. A lot of us grew up knowing what constitutes a north facing slope before we could write cursive. ( i don't know if i still can write cursive) anyway hope one of the answers that was givin helped.
:yeah:That's still makes me laugh..... :P

More pressing: Is next Saturday tomorrow, or 8 days from now? My bid is 8 days from now, as distinguished from this Saturday, which is tomorrow. What say you?
That's easy man! Next Saturday which would could also be called the Saturday after next is definitely 8 days from now, and this Saturday is tomorrow. If you bid is due Saturday then it is due tomorrow so you better get to work :)

It is usually wetter on a North facing slope.
Unless of course you are lost and actually on the South facing slope where it is often drier due to sun exposure.
The further South of the equator you go elk may actually prefer the South facing slopes.
If there were elk south of the south end of the equator.
All that being equal this post equates to about nothing.

If you drop a rock on the slope, and it rolls in a northerly direction, you're on a north facing slope.
If you drop a rock on the slope, and it rolls in a southerly direction, you're on a south facing slope.
If you drop a rock on the slope, and it just keeps on dropping, you're in the Mill Creek Watershed.

If you are walking up a slope, towards north (following a compass) and you are physically "facing" north - is that "north facing slope"? (no)
It is when the slope is on the north side, regardless of how YOU are "facing", then that is a "north facing slope".

Actually, I really want to get an answer to Jbeaumont's question:
Hypothetical question, lets say you live in Hood River, OR and you are going to head South to Government Camp on Mt Hood. Would you tell someone that you are heading "down" to Government Camp since you are going South or would you tell them that you are headed "up" to Government Camp since you are traveling uphill? Which takes precedence when telling someone where you are headed, direction or elevation?
I have had arguments with family members over this discussion. :dunno:
Personally, I think it depends on how far south you would be travelling. Hood River to Government Camp is not that far south, but it is quite an elevation climb.............so I vote for up.
Now if you were traveling from Olympia to Government camp, it is still a large elevation climb, but it is much farther in the southerly direction, so I'd say DOWN in that case.
Great thread guys. :tup:

Facing south means they get more sun exposure than the north since the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
