Green June Mountain, CA
Rainbow Ridge drops 217 vertical feet over 3,075 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 12° about 2,770 feet below the top. That's steeper than 32% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 27th steepest of 31 named runs at June Mountain. It faces west.
Facing west at an average 4°, Rainbow Ridge gets about 102% of the winter sun that flat ground at June Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the sunniest named run at June Mountain. Its top sits at 9,980 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
