Blue China Peak, CA
Tollhouse drops 115 vertical feet over 603 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 45% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 33rd steepest of 54 named runs at China Peak. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 11°, Tollhouse gets about 62% of the winter sun that flat ground at China Peak does, December through March. That's shadier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th shadiest named run at China Peak. Its top sits at 7,270 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.
