Blue Ragged Mountain, NH
Wild Side drops 328 vertical feet over 1,380 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 640 feet below the top. That's steeper than 20% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 41st steepest of 53 named runs at Ragged Mountain. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 14°, Wild Side gets about 63% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ragged Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 9th shadiest named run at Ragged Mountain. Its top sits at 1,880 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.
