Double black Dodge Ridge, CA
Six Shooter drops 748 vertical feet over 2,773 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 35° about 1,830 feet below the top. That's steeper than 42% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 1st steepest of 53 named runs at Dodge Ridge. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 16°, Six Shooter gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Dodge Ridge does, December through March. That's shadier than 78% of the runs we've measured, and the 17th shadiest named run at Dodge Ridge. Its top sits at 8,000 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.
