Ramp drops 61 vertical feet over 916 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 890 feet below the top. That's steeper than 69% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 41st steepest of 45 named runs at Ski Apache. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 4°, Ramp gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ski Apache does, December through March. That's shadier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 21st shadiest named run at Ski Apache. Its top sits at 10,230 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.
