A ridgeline is a long area from which the surface drops away steeply on one or two sides, such as a bluff or precipice.

As the trail flattens out, it follows the draw up right to a saddle in the ridgeline.

Surface runoff from ridgeline development can contaminate rivers and streams that supply drinking water downstream.

These ridgelines and hilltops are exceptional aesthetic and ecological resources, visible from many perspectives and distances.
