Blue Boreal, CA
German Ridge drops 531 vertical feet over 2,978 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 1,560 feet below the top. That's steeper than 63% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 32nd steepest of 71 named runs at Boreal. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 10°, German Ridge gets about 78% of the winter sun that flat ground at Boreal does, December through March. That's shadier than 58% of the runs we've measured, and the 24th shadiest named run at Boreal. Its top sits at 7,640 feet.
It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
