Blue Snow Summit, CA
Timber Ridge drops 773 vertical feet over 3,194 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 2,400 feet below the top. That's steeper than 49% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 17th steepest of 27 named runs at Snow Summit. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 14°, Timber Ridge gets about 74% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snow Summit does, December through March. That's shadier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 17th shadiest named run at Snow Summit. Its top sits at 8,120 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.
