Double black Mt Baldy, CA
Windslab drops 455 vertical feet over 821 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 40° about 240 feet below the top. That's steeper than 71% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 1st steepest of 26 named runs at Mt Baldy. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 34°, Windslab gets about 66% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Baldy does, December through March. That's shadier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 7th shadiest named run at Mt Baldy. Its top sits at 7,610 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.
