Double black Red Lodge, MT
Ringer's Run drops 572 vertical feet over 1,258 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 35° about 330 feet below the top. That's steeper than 45% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 5th steepest of 54 named runs at Red Lodge. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 27°, Ringer's Run gets about 45% of the winter sun that flat ground at Red Lodge does, December through March. That's shadier than 95% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th shadiest named run at Red Lodge. Its top sits at 9,130 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.
