Ridgetop drops 197 vertical feet over 1,288 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 1,170 feet below the top. That's steeper than 10% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 16th steepest of 21 named runs at Warner Canyon. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 9°, Ridgetop gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Warner Canyon does, December through March. That's shadier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th shadiest named run at Warner Canyon. Its top sits at 6,460 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.
