Blue Mt Baldy, CA
Rollercoaster drops 607 vertical feet over 3,068 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 830 feet below the top. That's steeper than 47% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 20th steepest of 26 named runs at Mt Baldy. It faces south.
Facing south at an average 12°, Rollercoaster gets about 120% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Baldy does, December through March. That's sunnier than 87% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd sunniest named run at Mt Baldy. Its top sits at 8,410 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.
