Black diamond Dodge Ridge, CA
Exhibition drops 907 vertical feet over 3,390 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 1,890 feet below the top. That's steeper than 14% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 25th steepest of 53 named runs at Dodge Ridge. It faces southwest.
Facing southwest at an average 16°, Exhibition gets about 113% of the winter sun that flat ground at Dodge Ridge does, December through March. That's sunnier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 4th sunniest named run at Dodge Ridge. Its top sits at 7,910 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.
